"You should read history and look at ostracism, persecution, martyrdom, and that kind of thing. They always happen to the best men, you know."
George Eliot
...all these great figures in history...somehow...we tend to have them suffered, tortured, estranged and executed...then time passes...we at some point realize these are exactly the people we need and should look up to...finally we give them due credit long after their lives ruined & sacrificed...the respect & love we give they no longer can feel & see...is this the best we can do to the great souls in fellow human beings?
Simply look at what often happens to whistle blowers and you know history repeats itself.
Are we not going to do something about it?
When we see a modern-day Martin Luther in the news, or at work, what'd we do?
