If I'm being brutally honest I didn't understand 10% of the questions. I just ticked the first thing that came to mind in my druken state. Probably the best way to do it

Shame we don' t have a lot more with that sort of "balance" that could actually put it into use effectively."If you act like an illiterate man, your learning will never stop... Being uneducated, you have no fear of the future.".....

Sad really, as Gandhian patronising attitudes to the poor in Indian prevented development of clean water and sewerage systems, prevented foreign investment and kept 100s of millions in un-necessary poverty.
Mandela, whilst having some admirable qualities, was too cowardly to address the two major African problems: AIDS/HIV (10 of millions of preventable deaths) and the massive corruption amoungst the ruling African elite (his fellow freedom fighters) which continues unchecked today.
The both could have made a real difference but choose a different path.0 -

True.
At the other end of the scales you'll find people like Margaret Thatcher, Stalin and Adolf Hitler, who were also less than perfect.
Probably a good thing that we are all different and bring different qualities and perspectives to the world we live in.0
