These are children in Siliguri, India who participated in a Mahatma Gandhi costume contest to celebrate the peace activist's 139th birth day on October 2nd.
How adorable are they? I know, right? This picture just makes me smile. Their little bald caps crack me up. A bunch of Lil' Gandhi's are the perfect antidote to Lil' O'Reilly.
So in honor of the Father of India's Sweet 139, here are some of my favorite Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi quotes:
"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."
"Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary."
"You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty."
