Quote of the Week

While sitting in a class which as I recall being quite dull, I flipped through the pages of my planner and while doing so discovered that located at the top of every right page that there was a quote. Now as you know planners are books with months, weeks, or days in them. Mine just so happens to be a weekly planner so a set of a left and right page is one week. Monday, Tuesday, and Wendsday on the left and Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday on the right. Fascinating isn't it? Anyway, so I've decided that everyweek I shall extract the weekly quote from my planner and post it here. Quite cleverI believe.... and a good indicator of how bored I am...

This Week's Weekly Quote I believe is positively superb and I hope you appriciate it.

"A Satyagahi will always try to overcome evil by good, anger by love, untruth by truth. Ther is no other way of purging the world of evil." -Mahatma Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (1869-1948)

I looked up the word "satyagahi" and I believe it means peacemaker which would make sense, no?

I think I shall memorize this superb quote for it is indeed fabulous and should make good discussion if the occasion arises. Maybe you'll find yourself memorizing it to for similar or even a completely different purpose.

Well, I must be off to type up a bit of homework but I shall return, mark my words I shall!!!

LOVE,
XOXO,
FOREVER COOL,
~ME~

Sort of encapsulates Ghandi in a nutshell, really. You can tell a lot about someone by their language.

P.S. Here is another great quote for you:

"Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. 18If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: It is mine to avenge; I will repay, says the Lord. On the contrary: If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink... Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." - Romans 12:17-21, The Holy Bible
