Live & learn
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

On being violent
Is there a right moment for being violent? Is violence a viable way to peace?
Mahatma Gandhi supposedly said: “It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence.”
Isn’t this more about authenticity, than about violence? And isn’t this equally about calming the violence in the heart, than to put it into the sheeps coat?
Happiness
“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”
– Mahatma Gandhi
Keep the faith in humanity
“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.”
– Mahatma Gandhi
Sharing Happiness
“Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.”
– Buddha
It would be a good idea
My most favorite Gandhi quote: “I think it would be a good idea.”
– This is what Mahatma Gandhi replied, when asked what he thought of Western civilization.
(Isn’t this brutally honest from a man so peaceful in such non-violent words.)
