Mahatma Gandhi
Where there is truth, there also is knowledge which is true.
Mahatma Gandhi
More caution and perhaps more restraint are necessary in breaking a fast than in keeping it.
Mahatma Gandhi
God always saves the world from the consequences of unintended errors of men who live in fear of Him.
Mahatma Gandhi
The sky may be overcast today with clouds, but a fervent prayer to God is enough to dispel them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Government control gives rise to fraud, suppression of Truth, intensification of the black market and artificial scarcity. Above all, it unmans the people and deprives them of initiative, it undoes the teaching of self-help.
Mahatma Gandhi
