On the one hand I must attempt to change the soul of individuals so that their societies may be changed.On the other I must attempt to change the societies so that the individual soul will have a chance.

–Martin Luther King Jr.

In the moment of our trialand our triumph, let me

declare my faith. I believein loving my enemies.

–MohandasKaramchand Gandhi

A great human revolution in just a single individual will help achieve

a change in the destiny of a society, and further, will enable a change in

the destiny of humankind.

–Daisaku Ikeda
