It disfigured the gates, but they held.<br /><br />WWII and its aftermath - particularly from one minute past midnight on 1st January 1960 - was when the battering ram broke through and the barbarians took hold of the City.<br /><br />A return to authentic Goodness, Truth, Beauty - in a world, Love - will make us whole.
