[QUOTE="Grayson, post: 23824, member: 18"] [b]Re: Just to get the ball Rollin'[/b] ...Everyone said, loud enough for the others to hear: "Look at the Emperor's new clothes. They're beautiful!" "What a marvellous train!" "And the colors! The colors of that beautiful fabric! I have never seen anything like it in my life!" They all tried to conceal their disappointment at not being able to see the clothes, and since nobody was willing to admit his own stupidity and incompetence, they all behaved as the two scoundrels had predicted. A child, however, who had no important job and could only see things as his eyes showed them to him, went up to the carriage. "The Emperor is naked," he said. "Fool!" his father reprimanded, running after him. "Don't talk nonsense!" He grabbed his child and took him away. But the boy's remark, which had been heard by the bystanders, was repeated over and over again until everyone cried: "The boy is right! The Emperor is naked! It's true!" The Emperor realized that the people were right but could not admit to that. He though it better to continue the procession under the illusion that anyone who couldn't see his clothes was either stupid or incompetent. And he stood stiffly on his carriage, [i]while behind him a page held his imaginary mantle*.[/i] *For the free mind, no such acts of personal deception are necessary. Freedom is the right to be individual, the right to be the boy in the tale of the Emperor's New Clothes. See the truth, speak the truth, decry the lies and the liars who tell them. [/QUOTE]
