It's such a tragedy that man endures in killing his brother and his own kind, putting him in jail and insane asylums, letting him lay out in the street.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There is something universal in the theme of a man trying to save his family in the midst of the most terrible circumstances. It is not limited to Sierra Leone. This story could apply to any number of places where ordinary people have been caught up in political events beyond their control.
Teenagers too often have to deal with loss and death. You had to cope with the untimely death of your brother; how can young people deal with such tragedies?
The tragedy of life is what dies inside a man while he lives.
I think of my brother just out of prison again. He will have spent ten years of the last 30 in prison.
The miser, starving his brother's body, starves also his own soul, and at death shall creep out of his great estate of injustice, poor and naked and miserable.
For every story you hear that's tragic, there's another that's equally tragic or more so. I think you come to look at it as part of life.
A brother who is unhappy is a dangerous relative to have.
There are few things more dreadful than dealing with a man who knows he is going under, in his own eyes, and in the eyes of others. Nothing can help that man. What is left of that man flees from what is left of human attention.
If people want to take their lives and are helped to do so, the punishment is tragic for all concerned.
Man lives freely only by his readiness to die, if need be, at the hands of his brother, never by killing him.
