And, ver, his name is *still* Gandhi, not Ghandi.
It's clear Gandhi meant the last line as a puckish joke. People who repeat the quote piously, without irony, are engaging in self-deception and wishful thinking. People in leadership roles who think that way end in failure, rout, and disaster. There are lots of ways to fail, even when everything seems to be on your side. Getting distracted by Microsoft's closet monsters, and letting them decide how well we are doing and what we do next, would be another. To forget why we started down this road (freedom, remember?) is the surest.
