i am sitting here with fischer's 'the life of mahatma gandhi' and i am itching to read it... i did love the epic film with ben kingsley and i have found his snippet-quotes so very inspiring...
here is one i found today on the blogsphere...
"What does it matter to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy?" - Mohandas K. Gandhi
i do not want to oversimplify the situation abroad in iraq, but doesnt this just bring a sense of conviction and heartbreak when you consider all who have died, all that has happened, all that has been torn apart for the holy name of liberty and democracy?... and thats if youre relatively optimistic about the reasons the us invaded iraq...
