Read the following quote and respond.
Consider the young Hindu, who sits in prison today, so heavily guarded because he killed Gandhi. Is he to die or to live? If we are to take Gandhi literally, and I think he meant always to be taken literally, that man should not die by violence, even as punishment for a crime.
-- Pearl S. Buck (1892-1973), writer, Pulitzer Prize winner 1932, Nobel Prize winner (Literature) 1938.
