Mahatma Gandhi
Man must choose either of the two courses, the upward or the downward but as he has the brute in him, he will more easily choose the downward course than the upward, especially when the downward course is presented to him in a beautiful garb. Man easily capitulates when sin is presented in the garb of virtue.
Mahatma Gandhi
One man cannot do right in one department of life whilst he is occupied in doing wrong in any other department. Life is one indivisible whole

Mahatma Gandhi
I have even seen the writings suggesting that I am playing a deep game, that I am using the present turmoil to foist my fads on India, and am making religious experiments at India's expense. I can only answer that Satyagraha is made of sterner stuff. There is nothing reserved and nothing secret in it.
Mahatma Gandhi
The greatness of humanity is not in being human, but in being humane.
Mahatma Gandhi
It has always been a mystery to me how men can feel themselves honoured by the humiliation of their fellow beings.
Mahatma Gandhi
I call the Lancashire trade immoral, because it was raised and is sustained on the ruin of millions of India's peasants.
Mahatma Gandhi
