Der Spiegel or the Mirror



I have only come here seeking knowledge,
what they would not teach up in college;
I can see the destiny you sold,
turn into a shining band of gold.
- Sting, 'Wrapped around your finger'

Was reading and watching the Berlin Wall events on Der Spiegel and thought that Germany IS Faust.
It has lived its namesake in every sense of the word and re-emerged from the ashes.
And fascinating story of Nov. 9 in Germany's history.

Land of geniuses and madmen.
Martin Luther to Gutenberg, Aushchwitz to Einstein, Beethoven to Karl Heinrich Marx.
Ich noch liebe dich.
