Mahatma Gandhi
Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph: a beginning, a struggle, and a victory.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-co-operation is not a movement of drag, bluster or bluff.
Mahatma Gandhi
And whilst he may not claim superiority by reason of learning, I myself must not withold that meed of homage that learning, wherever it resides, always commands.
Mahatma Gandhi
The world cannot be successfully fooled for all time.
Mahatma Gandhi
I must declare that it is better for India do discard violence altogether even for defending her borders.
Mahatma Gandhi
I can combine the greatest love with the greatest opposition to wrong.
Mahatma Gandhi
