"Nearly everything you do is of no..." - Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

“Devotion to Truth is the sole justification for our existence.”

“Let not the 12 million Negroes be ashamed of the fact that they are the grandchildren of slaves. There is dishonor in being slave-owners.”

“A policy is a temporary creed liable to be changed, but while it holds good it has got to be pursued with apostolic zeal.”

“We can wake ourselves up, discover in ourselves an energy that was hidden there, and act with more clarity, more force.”

“If everyone sweeps before his own front door, then the street is clean.”

“My fellow Americans, let us take that first step. Let us...step back from the shadow of war and seek out the way of peace. And if that journey is a thousand miles, or even more, let history record that we, in this land, at this time, took the first step.”

“In other words, character is far more important than intellect to the race as to the individual. We need intellect, and there is no reason why we should not have it together with character; but if we must choose between the two we choose character without a moment's hesitation.”

“The stream of thinking has enormous momentum that can easily drag you along with it. Every thought pretends that it matters so much.”

“All I can do is to urge on you to regard friendship as the greatest thing in the world; for there is nothing which so fits in with our nature, or is so exactly what we want in prosperity or adversity.”
