A remarkable speech today from Prince Charles, rising to the level of real eloquence, in his recognition of the 10th anniversary. Amidst all of the other oratory here and around the globe, this caught my attention. It is not easily done, rhetorically, to speak about the human family and the greater meaning of tragedy. I would normally be skeptical of a future English monarch quoting President Lincoln. Not so in this case. To hear a figure of this position speak so frankly and critically about the ongoing wars, and the need to “break the law of cause and effect.”
This is a challenging speech. Well said. And well written, and well spoken. A good man, speaking well.
“And a light shall illuminate the darkness.”
Quite the surprise!
