Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism has made marvelous discoveries in things of religion, of the spirit, of the soul. We have no eye for these great and fine discoveries. We are dazzled by the material progress that Western science has made. Ancient India has survived because Hinduism was not developed along material but spiritual lines.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man can only describe God in his own poor language.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing will demoralize the nation so much as that we should learn to despise labour.
Mahatma Gandhi
Never has man reached his destination by persistence in deviation from the straight path.
Mahatma Gandhi
