Gandhi by Mahatma Gandhi
“Evil means, he insisted, corrupt and degrade not only the purposes for which they are
undertaken but also the persons who stoop to such means. Overcoming the urge to resort to such means is hardest when one aims to rectify past injustices. It is because ‘hate the sin and not the sinner’ is a precept so rarely practiced that ‘the poison of hatred spreads in the world”

Richard Dear Margaret,

Thank you for your friend request. I am delighted to be connected to anyone who was involved with the anthology Engraved: Canadian Stories of World War One. As you have probably seen, I enjoyed that book very much and reviewed it as well.
