Mahatma Gandhi
There is no god greater than truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
The highest truth needs no communicating, for it is by its very nature self-propelling. It radiates its influence silently as the rose its fragrance without the intervention of a medium.
Mahatma Gandhi
If India won her freedom through truth and non-violence, India would not only point the way to all the exploited Asiatic nations, she would become a torch-bearer for the Negro races.
Mahatma Gandhi
You cannot stop big wars if you carry on little wars yourselves.
Mahatma Gandhi
In any case, the fear of subservience is quite imaginary.
Mahatma Gandhi
