Dalai Lama Quotes, Gun Quotes, Power Quotes

Chairman Mao once said that political power comes from the barrel of a gun. He was only partly right: power that comes from the barrel of a gun can be effective only for a short time. In the end, peoples love for truth, justice, freedom, and democracy will triumph. No matter what governments do, the human spirit will always prevail.

Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest.
