An eye for eye only end up making the whole world blind..


How True! everytime i read this line and everytime i ask myself, can't we be more tolerant? Haven't mankind learned anything from past?  "An eye for eye only end up making the whole world blind" 

An eye for an eye means you can do the same bad thing to someone who did the bad thing towards you. Doing this means everyone will get a bad deed done unto them. It basically means forgive people instead:

"To err is human, to forgive, divine".

Here are some other nice quotes of Gandhi:

  • A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave. 
  • A man is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes. 
  • Action expresses priorities. ( My God! can you believe it? How thoughtful!!)
  • All the religions of the world, while they may differ in other respects, unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth. 
  • Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well. 
  • An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind.
  • An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching. (Wow! so practical!)
  • Be the change that you want to see in the world :-)

M.K.Gandhi
