This Saturday, September 21st marks the International day of peace. Today we remember the words of Nelson Mandela,
No one is born hating another person because of the color of their skin or his background, or religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
-Nelson Mandela
It is because of hope that you suffer. It is through hope that you’ll change things.
- Maxime Lagace.
