Mohandas Gandhi: Artisan of India''s independence. The Mahatma was the lawyer of the poor in South Africa fighting for the rights of Indians established in that country.
The thoughts of Gandhi reflect more than a great wisdom, it is a way of life.
- The faith is worthless if not translated into action.
- I believe in the conversion of humanity, not its destruction.
- To forget how to dig the earth and how to maintain it, is to forget ourselves.
- No culture can survive if it tries to be exclusive.
- Ahimsa means infinite love. It is also the highest ideal for the brave, not for cowards. The cowardice and Ahimsa cannot match, like water and fire.
- You cannot separate Ahimsa of the truth.
- Ahimsa is a science. The word "failure" has no science vocabulary.
- Courtesy and mutual respect are the foundation of culture.
- Brutality is so far the only test that the West has recognized.
- Respect other religions as we respect ours. To tolerate only is not enough.
- A living faith cannot be manufactured by law and the majority.
- Terrorism and deception are weapons of the weak.
- What is imprisonment for a man who does not fear death itself?
