Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Man must choose either of the two courses, the upward or the downward but as he has the brute in him, he will more easily choose the downward course than the upward, especially when the downward course is presented to him in a beautiful garb.

Mahatma Gandhi
Image
When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall... think of it, always.
Mahatma Gandhi
