The suffering of the poor and working class people is a virtual nonissue for the media. But that is the reality.

Once you are afraid of death you are bound to be afraid of life. That`s why I am talking about this Hasidic approach.

Plants will grow about your roots, whether you ask them or not, because they take delight in your bountiful shadow; and as they grow they will lean towards you, and wind round you, because your strength offers them so safe a prop.
You will get criticism throughout your career. All the best players have had it at some stage, and they haven't let it ruin their careers. I won't, either.
