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

Love the first quote about forgiveness and strength!
This is an excellent choice, Crystal. 🙂
These are all wonderful reminders. At first I chose #1, but I’m going with all 3 Karen. 🙂
Three winners! Thank you very much, Debby. 🙂
#1, but they’re all good.
Thank you very much, Sue.
The second one. This has been proven time and again, and yet governments and other groups still see violence as a solution.
This is a good choice, Annabelle. Some governments and groups lack the patience for reasonable (i.e. peaceful!) long-term solutions.
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
Love this one. So true!
Excellent choice, Sandra. I couldn’t agree more.
My favorite is Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position. With recent events, it becomes clear the false position is the dangerous one to take,
Excellent! Thank you for sharing this powerful quote with us, John.

Thank you very much for reblogging this post.
So timely to feature ghandi – not sure if you planned this but was soothing amidst all the Paris horror –
Thank you very much for your kind feedback. Gandhi was on my list and – I considered him the obvious choice regarding the events in Paris.
