'Thought' So

I read the following in some totally different context. And I couldn’t help but think that this so applies to the Bollywood film industry

“People learn more easily and retain information longer when the lesson is housed in a story, illustration or metaphor

If you go back to tribal behavior, one of the most critical people in any tribe was the shaman, the fundamental storyteller: Keep in mind, their job was not one of historical accuracy. Instead, their job was to tell stories that influenced and guided behavior. Stories were modified in order to achieve the appropriate kind of culture.”

For there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so
- Shakespeare, Hamlet Prince of Denmark

I would rather that India perished than she wins freedom on the sacrifice of truth……..Democracy is not a state in which people act like sheep. Under democratic liberty of opinion and action is jealously guarded. I am not pleading for India to practise nonviolence because it is weak. I want her to practice nonviolence being fully conscious of its power.
- Mahatma Gandhi
