Words for the Weekend

"Corruption? Well, unhappily, yes. There is corruption in politics because there are human beings in politics. There is corruption in business and in law and in medicine. But when there is corruption it is because we allow it to grow and flourish. There is only one way of combating corruption: that is not by eschewing politics; it is by developing standards of honor, living up to them, and requiring them of our candidates." 

Eleanor Roosevelt, You Learn by Living
