“The political tactics of division and slander are not our values.

“When I was a child, for a public/civil servant to be caught in corrupt practices, that individual will be a pariah. He will be a complete reject of the society; he/she could not raise his or her voice to speak in the public. So what happened between that time and now? That time when a public officer, prison or customs officer caught in corruption hides his face in shame amongst his peers, he just couldn't come out publicly. Today, when they come back, they get chieftaincy titles, they are received in grand style, cows are killed, they ride on white horses.” ChildrenTodayFacesIndividualSpeakVoiceWhitePracticeHappenedStyleHorseShameRaisesPrisonCaughtCorruptionTitlesServantRejectsCustomsOfficersCowsPeersCivil ServantsWhite HorsePariahs Author:Wole Soyinka

“My closest friend, who died not long ago, is buried near Marx's grave in Highgate cemetery, so I see the gaggle of admirers laying roses at the foot of his tombstone regularly. I have never been tempted to leave flowers there myself. Great theories, shame about the practice. Marx did many things.

“To be fond of learning is to draw close to wisdom. To practice with vigor is to draw close to benevolence. To know the sense of shame is to draw close to courage. He who knows these three things knows how to cultivate his own character. Knowing how to cultivate his own character, he knows how to govern other men. Knowing how to govern other men, he knows how to govern the world, its states, and its families.” KnowsMenWorldStatesCharacterThreePracticeKnow HowKnowingDrawsShameThree ThingsBenevolenceVigorConfucianism Author:Confucius
