Mahatma Gandhi
I believe that the sum total of the energy of mankind is not to bring us down but to lift us up, and that is the result of the definite, if unconscious, working of the law of love.

Mahatma Gandhi
Complete independence through truth and non-violence means the independence of every unit, be it the humblest of the nation, without distinction of race, colour or creed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cow protection means protection of the weak, the helpless, the dumb and the deaf.
