John C. Maxwell

And purification being highly infectious, purification of oneself necessarily leads to the purification of one’s surroundings.”
Mahatma Gandhi

And they have given me the St. George's Cross. I can't make it out, I can't make it out!”
Leo Tolstoy

“Facts we would always place before our readers, whether they are palatable or not, and it is by placing them constantly before the public in their nakedness that the misunderstanding between the two communities in South Africa can be removed.”
