“Live Simply
So That Others
May Simply Live”
I love this quote for a number of reasons.
I first saw it the other day when I was driving around town, spray painted in black on a white background – striking, simple and poignant.
The object that had been painted white? A street-side concrete garbage container.
The garbage container was located outside a high school.
Youth activism in today’s text message world. Perfect.
Who is the author of this quote?
A quick Google search attributed it to both Mother Teresa and Gandhi.
I didn’t feel the need to search further, to suss-out just who was the definitive author. Either is fine by me.
Striking, simple, poignant.
