I lost nothing thereby -- not even money, certainly not my soul.

If we develop the force of will, we shall find that we do not need the force of arms.
Mahatma Gandhi
Of all the evils for which man has made himself responsible, none is so degrading, so shocking, or so brutal as his abuse of the better half of humanity to me, the female sex is not the weaker sex.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even a little of dharma saves one from many a pitfall.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is more to life than increasing its speed.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I was to be their real teacher and guardian, I must touch their hearts, I must share their joys and sorrows, I must help them to solve the problems that faced them, and I must take along the right channel the surging aspirations of their youth.
