Mahatma Gandhi
Man becomes great exactly in the degree in which he works for the welfare of his fellow-men.

Mahatma Gandhi
And everyone who wills can hear the Voice. It is within every one. But like everything else it requires previous and definite preparation.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not want any patronage, as I do not give any. I am a lover of my own liberty, and so I would do nothing to restrict yours. I simply want to please my own conscience which is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Find yourself by losing yourself for others.
Mahatma Gandhi
Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the Jews on the Arabs...
