Description

"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."
--Mahatma Gandhi

This is the second time I've used a Gandhi quote in one of my pictures, the thing is, this time I didn't even know it!! I was revising Christian Ethics (yay...) and I saw this quote in the pacifism section (but it didn't say it was by Gandhi). When I searched it up and found out it was Gandhi, I wasn't surprised, this is something that he would say and I find it extremely inspirational and motivating.

This assumes that half the world are criminals and the other half are victims.


Furthermore, sometimes very severe punishments for very severe crimes will discourage others from committing those crimes.


Gandhi said a lot of great things. This is not one of them.
