Wisdom from Gandhi for troubled times...

This website has an array of wonderful Gandhi quotes:

I happened to catch the 1982 movie about Gandhi yesterday and it was very inspiring. One thing he said in the movie that is not listed on this website (paraphrased) is: Truth and Love will always win out - no matter how bad things look... If you look back into history, dictators and "evil" regimes or people don't last forever - they eventually fall, and love and peace will prevail in the long run, because it's stronger... Think on this, when times are difficult, he said... And he said this during very turbulent times, like we're experiencing today, only worse... Even though we may grieve all the suffering inflicted by others, let us remember Gandhi's wise words about revenge: "An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind." Thank you Gandhi, "great soul", for your example...

Love and Peace, Jennifer :)
