Much has been argued about the sinking of the Titanic,but when the Royal Mail Steamer Titanic slid beneath the waves on april 15th, 1912,more than an "unsinkable" ship went down.
An age of ostentatious and arogant worship of wealth also began a fast slide into oblivion.It was an end of the golden age when faith that money could fix anything and that man had conquered nature was confounded when the sea swallowed the proudest ship afloat,and to coin a phrase, from Humpty Dumpty"all the kings horses could'nt bring her back". An epitaph for this arrogant era was mouthed by one of the crew" Lady, God himself could'nt sink this ship".Titanic,whose very name rang with invincibilty,thus became a symbol.Her sudden disappearance enhanced an already mythical reputation.
There are those who would raise her.Massive ammounts of money might make it possible.but the state she is now in what would be the purpose ? The band won't start playing again,the golden era won't rise with her.So let us leave her and those who died with her in peace.
