Pause for thought: "If 50,000 people died in London on Monday, in Rome on Tuesday, Munich on Wednesday, in New York on Thursday and in Paris on Friday, they would find the money and the solution to the problem as they walked from the lift to the breakfast bar, they just would.
'There is no way they wouldn't find it and the thing is to try and say to people that we care as much about these deaths happening elsewhere as we would if they happened on our front doorstep. We don't have to be condemned by the fact that 20 years ago it wasn't possible to do something big and structural. It is possible now. A huge amount is at stake for a huge amount of people." -Richard Curtis.
He's right
