I can't see any one thing wrong with that list.

Sometimes I think that Ghandi was the last truley wise man this planet has been graced with.

15. Why can't we have another Gandhi?

And why is it that things that just make sense, like the above, have to be pointed out as being exceptionally wise?

Says a lot about humanity, don't you think?

17. Why not you? Or me? or any of us?

Gandhi had a lot of great quotes. One of my favorites: "Be the change you want to see in the world."

[Joe Chi Minh]

18. I like his reply to a question put to Ghandi by Churchill, on the occasion

of a visit by Ghandi to the UK, "Well, what do you think of Western civilisation, Mr Ghandi?"

To which Ghandi replied, "What do I think of Western civilisation? I think it would be a very good idea."
