Mahatma Gandhi
Without real nonviolence, there would be perfect anarchy.
Mahatma Gandhi
Adversity is the mother of progress.

Mahatma Gandhi
A nation that is capable of limitless sacrifice is capable of rising to limitless heights. The purer the sacrifice the quicker the progress.

Mahatma Gandhi
I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honour than that she should, in a cowardly manner, become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor.
Mahatma Gandhi
