Overview
This badge features a slight adaptation of the famous quote by Mahatma Gandhi: 'Live simply so that others may simply live'.
The meaning is to live simply so that there are more resources to go around for those who are just trying to live.
It was sold by the New Zealand Nuclear Free Zone Committee as a fundraiser in the 1980s.
