If I had the time or money, I would probably try to go back again and I had already been twice during opening tour... that's how much I like it there.
Anyways, this picture comes from trip to Munich last weekend. While on a 3 to 3 & 1/2 hour walking tour (which was supposed to only be 2 hours and after a 4 hour bike tour) with a very enthusiastic and entertaining tour guide, he made sure we stopped at this memorial. I don't remember everything he told us given that he gave us the entire history of Munich in 3 hours but this stop stuck out to me.
From what I can remember and with some help from Google, it translates to, "The life of every human being should be sacred."
Though Google also said that the quote is completely our of historical and political context, I'm taking the quote at face value.
This quote makes me feel a little better after watching the news (the only English channels hereare news channels) filled with Italy and Greece's troubles, the Penn State scandal, the deaths in Syria, and other stories that don't make you feel great.
The life of every human being should be sacred.
