Aparna Frank wroteGreat interview. Bertrand Russell fits in there as well: “… there is a third class of men, more respected than either of the classes of workers. These are men who, through ownership of land, are able to make others pay for the privilege of being allowed to exist and to work.These landowners are idle, and I might, therefore, be expected to praise them. Unfortunately, their idleness is rendered possible only by the industry of others; indeed their desire for comfortable idleness is historically the source of the whole gospel of work. The last thing they have ever wished is that others should follow their example.”

Sorry for your loss, Thomas.
The people whom the world needs most seem to be the ones it has to lose too soon, when they still have so much to contribute.
