The real difficulty is that people have no idea of what education truly is. We assess the value of education in the same manner as we assess the value of land or of shares in the stock-exchange market. We want to provide only such education as would enable the student to earn more. We hardly give any thought to the improvement of the character of the educated. The girls, we say, do not have to earn; so why should they be educated? As long as such ideas persist there is no hope of our ever knowing the true value of education.
Mahatma GandhiReligion is the tie that binds one to one's Creator, and whilst the body perishes, as it has to, religion persists even after death.
Mahatma GandhiRunning away for fear of death, leaving one's dear ones, temples or music to take care of themselves, is irreligion; it is cowardice.
