Mahatma Gandhi If you want the world to change itself become this change

Mahatma Gandhi was a man of peace, preached nonviolence and directed the movement for India's independence from Britain. In India, they treat him with the same great respect as the saints. Gandhi's philosophy has had a great influence on supporters of the movement for peaceful change, and his wise thoughts still worry many.

• Fearlessness is indispensable for the development of other noble qualities. Is it possible without courage to seek the truth or carefully cherish love?
• The greatness and moral progress of a nation can be measured by how this nation relates to animals.
• Cases of conscience are not resolved by a majority vote.
• If we want to achieve real peace in the whole world, then we need to start with children.
• If you want a change in the future - become this change in the present.
• Love never demands, it always gives. Love always suffers, never expresses protest, never avenges itself.
• A small body, conditioned by spirit and inspired by an unquenchable faith in its mission, can change the course of history.
• My patriotism is not a closure on one nation; it is all-embracing, and I am ready to give up such patriotism that builds the well-being of one nation on the exploitation of others.
• Find the goal, the resources will be found.
• Throughout my life, I have benefited more from my critical friends than from fans, especially if the criticism was expressed in a polite and friendly language.
• I know only one tyrant, and this is a quiet voice of conscience.
• If I had no sense of humor, I would have committed suicide long ago.
• Nonviolence is not the lot of cowardice, it is always heroism.
• "No", said with deep conviction, is better than "Yes", said only to please or, worse, to avoid problems.
• The "eye for eye" principle will make the whole world blind.
• It's a bad habit to say that others think wrong, but we are right and that those who adhere to other views with us are enemies of the fatherland.
• Civilization in the true sense of the word consists not in the multiplication of needs, but in the free and well-thought-out restriction of one's desires.
• The weak never forgive. To forgive is the property of the strong.
• First they do not notice you, then they laugh at you, then they fight with you. And then you win.
