---------------------------------------------------------------------------- What we need is either less corruption, or more chance to participate in it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Akshay Joshi wrote of Robert Clive: HE COMMITED SUICIDE. so see how much some people achieve between two attempts. ======================================================================= Could we say: so see how much some people harm between two attempts! After all, had he succeeded in the initial or second attempt, India's might have been a jewel less in the British Crown. Message--- Whatever happens is for the good. Things are predestined. Everything has more than one aspect. It is the famous half glass syndrome: Should I lament that my glass is half empty, or, should I rejoice that it is half full, not totally empty? Should we rejoice that a person fails in his suicide attempt, to bring laurels to the Crown, or, should we lament that he lived to cement the bondage in which Indians lived for 150 years? BTW, it was a nice account by Akshay. In our school days, I remember that the books mentioned Clive committed suicide with the help of a pen knife. Probably he cut his wrist artery/arteries.
