More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Honest disagreement is often a good sign of progress.
Mahatma Gandhi
Today I know that physical training should have as much place in the curriculum as mental training.
Mahatma Gandhi
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. Man easily capitulates when sin is presented in the garb of virtue.
Mahatma Gandhi
When real independence comes to India, the Congress and the League will be nowhere unless they represent the real opinion of the country.
Mahatma Gandhi
