• About Mahatma Gandhi: Great in taking decisions, great in executing them, Mahatma Gandhi was incomparably great in the last stand which he made on behalf of his country. He is undoubtedly one of the greatest men the world has ever seen. The world hath need of him, and if he is mocked and jeered at by "the people of importance," "the people with a stake in this country," - the Scribes and Pharisees of the days of Christ - he will be gratefully remembered, now and always, by a nation which he led from victory to victory.

  Chittaranjan Das

Porque esto es después del final, esto es todo el Azote de la Comarca, esto es averiguar cómo vivir en el tiempo que se suponía que no iba a pasar después de la gloriosa última batalla. Salvé el mundo, o creo que lo hice, y mira, el mundo sigue aquí, con puestas de sol y préstamos interbibliotecarios. Y no se preocupa por mí más de lo que la Comarca se preocupaba por Frodo.
