"If you think the world is all..." - Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

“As a rule I had a distaste for any reading beyond my school books.”

“A plea for the spinning wheel is a plea for recognizing the dignity of labour.”

“The pursuit of truth does not permit violence on one's opponent.”

“If you can't stand solitude, perhaps others find you boring as well.”

“If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.”

“Life without enquiry is not worth living for a man.”

“There is no pre-established harmony between the furtherance of truth and the well-being of mankind.”

“Are we so made that we have to take death in small doses daily or we could not go on with the business of living?”

“When one speaks of increasing power, machinery, and industry there comes up a picture of a cold, metallic sort of world in which great factories will drive away the trees, the flowers, the birds, and the green fields. And that then we shall have a world composed of metal machines and human machines. With all of that I do not agree. I think that unless we know more about the machines and their use, unless we better understand the mechanical portion of life, we cannot have the time to enjoy the trees, and the birds, and the flowers, and the green fields.”
