A Quote by "Mahatma" Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi on children, peace, love, and innocence

If we are to reach real peace in this world and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with children; and if they will grow up in their natural innocence, we won't have to struggle; we won't have to pass fruitless idle resolutions, but we shall go from love to love and peace to peace, until at last all the corners of the world are covered with that peace and love for which consciously or unconsciously the whole world is hungering.

This as simple and inocent but has power and strength… This has to be one of my all time favorite quotes because you can tell from the wording that it came from a man of simplicity asking for change and just from his words you can tell he too lived the life he asked us to live… simple , caring loving in peace, accepting other and teaching our children peacefullness thorough our actions not just mere words…
