Thought for the day - Injustice

If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality:[ Bishop Desmond Tutu]

  1. Now I understand why the 2 demonstrators went to MOM building on Monday 12 Jan 09 to protest for the renewal of work permits for their Bumese friends in Singapore. Perhaps, their conscience do not allow them to stay neutral (silence).

  2. Why didn't the mouse move when the elephant was about to step on the tail?

    It's the mouse's fault!
