Quote Of The Day

 


But around Verdun you have miles of land which is made one-third of steel, one-third of human remains, one-third of soil.  It is frightening for a country when its land remembers more than its people. ~ Mary Blume

So true. But sometimes when we visit places like this, we can sense the sacredness of a site.

The land always remembers more than humans. That doesn't excuse us from paying attention, though, and remembering as well as we can.
