Quote of the Week (#1)

A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave. Hatred ever kills, love never dies; such is the vast difference between the two. What is obtained by love is retained for all time. What is obtained by hatred proves a burden in reality for it increases hatred. --Gandhi

I love it.

You should read a great piece by Tolstoy---he had great influence over Gandhi. It's called 'The Demands of Love." Amazing, I tell you.

I copied it out of a book I picked up from a random used bookstore in a trip to europe.
