@Leo Tolstoy
This quote is the weakest quote I had ever read. It provokes the spirit of selfishness and less interaction. It is recommendable in practice to change the world than to change you, because the realistic of human being philosophy is that people learn from an environment. Without environment/world no way a person can afford to change himself. No one can change himself, but different environments will always yield different people and the different people could be calibrated if they could be taken to initial environments.
The argument of Leo Tolstoy is helping our country to sink.

Ephesians 4: 22-24,
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body. “In your anger do not sin”[d]: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold. Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need.
Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. Report Abuse

MrPresident. No problem with Tolstoy. Thinking like yours is what will ruin our nation. Actually, perhaps it is wrong to suggest that the mental activity you are undergoing is what we would call "thinking". Report Abuse

@ Mr President. Maybe you are misunderstanding the Tolstoy quote. All it means is this : If you ( for example ) would like the world to be a more friendly place, then you should first maske sure that you are a friendly person. If you want a world without racial or any prejudices, first make sure you rid yourself of any that you might have. Many people shout about those kinds of changes, but they don't want to change themselves first. They want law and order, but they will also pay a bribe to a traffic cop. You get the picture ?

@ Osiris. 3 questions for you :
1. Have you instituted a claim in terms of the Restitution of Land Act ? If not, why not ?
2. Do you think the black tribes who were displaced and slaughtered by the Zulus during the Mfecane Wars, should be able to claim that land, or compensation from the descendants of those Zulus ?
3. Which people have the rights to the Western Cape area from the Kei river in the East, Orange river in the North, and Atlantic Ocean to the West ? Report Abuse
