"I am the only one, whom you..." - Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

“It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, rules us we would have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that the so-called civilised men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis of society was violence.”

“Action is no less necessary than thought to the instinctive tendencies of the human frame.”

“I call myself a labourer because I take pride in calling myself a spinner, weaver, farmer and scavenger.”

“People are just afraid of things too much … Sure, evil exists, extremism exists. Somebody could commit a hate crime and hurt me. But they could do the same just because I'm black. They could do the same just because I'm American.”

“Let not the author eat up the man, so that he shall be all balcony and no house.”

“The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history.”

“A woman is a mystery to guide a wise and open man.”

“A woman's best qualities are harmful if undiluted with prudence.”

“Dear God! how beauty varies in nature and art. In a woman the flesh must be like marble; in a statue the marble must be like flesh.”
