Gandhi

Gandhi is a true role model in my mind. If anyone has not seen the 1982 movie starring Ben Kingsley, definetely do-it is truly inspiring. Since I could not put up a link to the whole movie, I just wanted to put forth a couple of his most meaningful quotes on nonviolence. Here they are:

"When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall — think of it, always."

"What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy?"

"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."

"There are many causes that I am prepared to die for but no causes that I am prepared to kill for."
