Ghandi's Seven Social Sins

Mohandas Ghandi considered there to be seven sins detrimental to humanity:

·         Wealth without Work

·         Pleasure without Conscience

·         Science without Humanity

·         Knowledge without Character

·         Politics without Principle

·         Commerce without Morality

·         Worship without Sacrifice

If all could avoid these sins (of which we are all guilty), the world would be so much more tolerable a place.

Ode of Remembrance

They went with songs to the battle, they were young.
Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

- The Ode of Remembrance from Laurence Binyon's For the Fallen (1914)
