Hi All
I’m unable to get to the nearest Demo tomorrow in the UK, I live in Devon, Southwest UK, about 200 miles from London. I’m with you all in spirit. I’m loosing my hearing, so hope it is ok to use this platform to register my utter disgust and contempt for the new President of the USA. Marginalising minority groups, making offensive comments about the disabled, showing ignorance…he’s not fit to be a world leader. I’m a postgraduate student at a world leading university University College London, and wish you all the best and success for this march.
As one of our former alumni at UCL, Mahatma Gandhi said..
“A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history.”
First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, and then you win.”
“In a gentle way, you can shake the world.
“It’s the action, not the fruit of the action, that’s important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there’ll be any fruit. But that doesn’t mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
“Man becomes great exactly in the degree in which he works for the welfare of his fellow-men.
“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it–always.”
You must be the change you wish to see in the world
Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.
The future depends on what you do today.”
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.
The future depends on what you do today.”
