Desmond Mpilo Tutu OMSG CH was a South African Anglican bishop and theologian, known for his work as an anti-apartheid and human rights activist.

Five of his famous quotes"
"Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world."~Desmond Tutu
"If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality."
"Forgiving is not forgetting; its actually remembering--remembering and not using your right to hit back. Its a second chance for a new beginning. And the remembering part is particularly important. Especially if you dont want to repeat what happened."
"Differences are not intended to separate, to alienate. We are different precisely in order to realize our need of one another."
~Desmond Tutu
"We are made for loving. If we don’t love, we will be like plants without water"
May his soul rest in eternal peace.
LOVE & RESPECT
