Plant flowers, they're beautiful even in a battlefield.

About Me

My life revolves around three things.
Uganda Children, friends and crew. Im founder and co-president(with Ali) of Granby High Schools Global Activists club. This is pretty much the most impressive thing I've ever done. If you want to become a friend quickly, join the club.
Which brings me to friends, their million dollar, i promise.
And crew(rowing), which is the most amazing team you could ever be a part of.
-Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
-Be the change you wish to see in the world.
-How can one not speak about war, poverty, and inequality when people who suffer from these afflictions don't have a voice to speak?
-Bullets cannot be recalled. They cannot be uninvented. But they can be taken out of the gun.
-Fear is a disease that eats away at logic and makes man inhuman.
-Peace begins when the hungry are fed.
-Peace is not the product of a victory or a command. It has no finishing line, no final deadline, no fixed definition of achievement. Peace is a never-ending process, the work of many decisions.
-If it's natural to kill, how come men have to go into training to learn how?
-The earth is but one country and mankind its citizens.
-The fragrance always remains in the hand that gives the rose.
-There never has been a war yet which, if the facts had been put calmly before the ordinary folk, could not have been prevented ... The common man, I think, is the great protection against war.
-War is God's way of teaching Americans geography.
-We do not inherit the earth from our fathers. We borrow it from our children.
-To eat bread without hope is still slowly to starve to death.
-If you can't feed a hundred people, then Feed Just One. - Mother Teresa
Live simply so that other can simply live -Mother Teresa
- The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it.
- There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing innocent people.
-Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one getting burned.
- You can hand people a rope but unless they take hold no one is helping anyone.
-Even a flickering candle is bright in darkness.
