Daily quote |
Mohandas Gandhi (Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi)I regard myself as a soldier, though a soldier of peace. I reject any religious doctrine that does not appeal to reason and is in conflict with morality. I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people. I will far rather see the race of man extinct than that we should become less than beasts by making the noblest of God's creation, woman, the object of our lust. I would heartily welcome the union of East and West provided it is not based on brute force. If co-operation is a duty, I hold that non-co-operation also under certain conditions is equally a duty. If I had no sense of humor, I would long ago have committed suicide. If patience is worth anything, it must endure to the end of time. And a living faith will last in the midst of the blackest storm. If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children. Imitation is the sincerest flattery. |
