"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.
“”I saw an article online today detailing the harrowing tale of a 17 year old girl in Ghana who was forced to flee to a witch camp after being accused of “stealing the brains” of her classmates to get top marks in school. They said she was “impossibly bright” and that is was “impossible for one student to retain everything the teacher said”. Her accuser? A male classmate who abandoned his studies and returned to his village, accusing the girl of stealing his wits as it was revealed to him in a dream. After being threatened with violence, the girl fled to a witch camp in order to seek haven from her would-be attackers.””
