Educational Quotes for the 21st Century
I ended up on this very interesting page as I was pursuing more information on this quote...One can easily understand a child who is afraid of the dark. The real tragedy of life is when grown men and women are afraid of the light.That's a quote from Plato. And I was drawn to that quotation by the events unfolding in Sacramento at the Sheriff's office. The local paper has begun investigating stories of abuse by sheriff's officers at the jail. And this morning (and yesterday) the newspapers letters to the editor section was filled with letters from those who think the newspaper should stop what they are doing and support the Sheriff 100% of the time. Law enforcement has a long history of using this "Circle the Wagons" mentality, when they should be inviting everyone concerned to investigate all that they can. If there is nothing to be hidden, let's turn the lights on. Their protest only begs the question; why?
