It Brought Tears to My Eyes

Reading and article on Slate titled "Bangkok Vice: Buddhas, Boxers, and Bar Girls" I came across a sentence therein, prompted by an account of a visit to the River Kwai War Museum:

"The toughest decision for any atrocity museum is what to put in the gift shop."

It left me breathless! One of those secrets of the universe revealed moments where one seems to glimpse true enlightenment.

It's not quite on par with Honami-san telling me in a quasi-Japanese restaurant in Las Vegas to "never order sushi in the desert", but certainly right up there.
