Edith Cavell Brussels Dawn October 12th 1915 patriotism is not enough I must have no hatred or bitterness for anyone
Edith Cavell was a British nurse executed by German authorities in Brussels on October 12, 1915, for helping Allied soldiers escape from occupied Belgium during World War I. The memorial commemorates her bravery and humanitarianism, and her famous last words, "Patriotism is not enough, I must have no hatred or bitterness for anyone," reflect her moral integrity and have become a powerful symbol of peace and forgiveness.
