While half-watching BBC News Tonight the other day, an interview on climate change by one of BBC’s reporter, Jeremy Paxman caught my ears. I was also only half-listening, but I thought the entire conversation  sounded intellectually interesting that I essentially forced myself to look up the telly to see what was on TV.

What I saw was a personality whom I don’t even know about, but one who exudes a very humble demeanour.His speech was slow, but deliberate.  I thought that he radiated so much wisdom that I did not even just stopped with what I was doing (I was on my laptop, working), I actually stopped to listen and waited for a name to show up on the screen – right after he quoted this:

What he said stuck to my head. His thoughts on the human race is so spot on, and I thought it is something very reflective of our current society where arrogance could (and does!) breed ignorance. I am curious about his book and I think I might find it to be a very good read for my not-so-intellectual mind.
