About This Quote
My nature has always been to fight. My faith forces me to forgive.” This quote is often attributed to Winston Churchill, but it is also sometimes attributed to Gandhi. The mauling of World War II had left him physically and mentally crippled, but he had found a source of steadfastness in religion. He allowed religion to soothe him, allowing him to transcend his physical limitations, and later use his religious faith to reach out to the leaders of his nation, who were also hurt by the war. It was this relationship that enabled him to forgive them before they could forgive themselves.
