Gandhi's "Seven Blunders"

Shortly before he was assassinated, Mohandas Gandhi gave his grandson Arun a note that contained the following Seven Blunders That Lead to Violence and Wars:

Pleasure without conscience,
Knowledge without character,
Commerce without morality,
Science without humanity,
Worship without sacrifice,
Politics without principles.

  1. I saw that you had posted on the blog The Comics Curmudgeon; if you like that blog, you might also like Pointless Planet, which is quite similar but which mocks TV ads rather than comic strips. Check it out:

    Btw, as a psychologist, I can't help but to love the name of your blog. ;)
