I agree, it is quite an unpleasant one. My book just opened on that page and I thought it might spark a debate.

I see now, although I haven’t seen the movie I am very lucky to know a great many people who reject the greed and look out for fellow man.

It has an autumnal feel about it.

I was thinking of Wall Street the movie, originally called Greed and inspired by the antithesis of Huxley’s utopian island. In spite of Capitalism’s failings, millions of Westeners reject greed and exploitation of the weak. A good many follow collective or individual moral codes, practising goodwill to others and charity. We are no saints but scorn a culture built around Huxley’s drug dependency and require no such influences to control inbuilt predatory dispositions.

I just opened my ‘keep calm and carry on’ book and that was the quote that faced me. It fitted my mood

I went into a folder of a visit Bovington Tank museum with the thoughts of posting something military. But the sunset shone out at me and I knew it was the right picture for the quote.
