Seven deadly sins
Happy Birthday, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. And thank you for giving us this:
Seven Deadly Sins
- Wealth without work
- Pleasure without conscience
- Science without humanity
- Knowledge without character
- Politics without principle
- Commerce without morality
- Worship without sacrifice

Oddly enough, the underpass that goes under the railroad bridge near me wasn’t flooded this time.
