A Little Gandhi

On this day of remembrance, I thought a few words from a man of peace would be appropriate...

"We win justice quickest by rendering justice to the other party."

-

"Hate the sin, love the sinner."

-

"I cannot teach you violence, as I do not myself believe in it. I can only teach you not to bow your heads before any one even at the cost of your life."

-

"I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent."

-

"I want freedom for the full expression of my personality."

-

"It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err."

-

"The weak can never forgive, Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong."

-

"It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence."

-

"To believe in something, and not to live it, is dishonest."

-

"You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty."

-
