Mahatma Gandhi
It is not a mistake to commit a mistake, for no one commits a mistake knowing it to be one. But it is a mistake not to correct the mistake after knowing it to be one. If you are afraid of committing a mistake, you are afraid of doing anything at all. You will correct your mistakes whenever you find them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Purest religion is highest expediency. Many things are lawful but they are not all expedient.
Mahatma Gandhi
The thing about you Christians, is that you are so unlike your Christ.
Mahatma Gandhi
If co-operation is a duty, I hold that non-co-operation also under certain conditions is equally a duty.
Mahatma Gandhi
