During a political discourse, a representative posed a challenging question to a minister, inquiring about the existence of a purely innocent individual. The minister, responding with conviction, highlighted the rarity of such purity in the world.
He pointedly noted that, outside of children, the mentally challenged, and the insane, true purity seems to be nonexistent in the complexities of human society. This exchange reflects on the inherent flaws and moral ambiguities of individuals within the socio-political landscape, as depicted in Naguib Mahfouz's "Echoes of Autobiography."
