I found these words and considering the correlations between Indy and 'Larry', I think this quote is apt.

In 1920, T.E. Lawrence (known popularly as Lawrence of Arabia) wrote the following about his country's involvement in the Middle East:

"The people of England have been led in Mesopotamia into a trap from

which it will be hard to escape with dignity and honour. They have been

tricked into it by a steady withholding of information. The Baghdad

communiques are belated, insincere, incomplete. Things have been far

worse than we have been told, our administration more bloody and

inefficient than the public knows. It is a disgrace to our imperial

record, and may soon be too inflamed for any ordinary cure. We are

to-day not far from a disaster.

-- T.E. Lawrence

August 22, 1920

Indy could create world peace, ANY day. *sighs* My hero.......
