Thought For the Day: One Does Not Ask of One Who Suffers: What Is Your Country and What Is Your Religion? One Merely Says: You Suffer, That Is Enough For Me
“One does not ask of one who suffers: What is your country and what is your religion? One merely says: You suffer, that is enough for me.” -Louis Pasteur, chemist and bacteriologist (27 Dec 1822-1895)
