There has been so much talk this year about democracy.
Here are two quotes that put this in perspective:
“What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless,
whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism
or in the holy name of liberty or democracy?”
– Mahatma Gandhi.
“I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy –
not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want,
but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you.
Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment,
freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
To me, those are the real freedoms on the basis of which good human societies are based.”
― Vandana Shiva
Merry Christmas and a Peaceful New Year to you and your loved ones.
