How do you know if the next act you are about to do is the right one or the wrong one? Consider the face of the poorest and most vulnerable human being that you have ever chanced upon, and ask yourself if the act that you contemplate will be of benefit to that person; and if it will be, it's the right thing to do, and if not, rethink it.
Mahatma GandhiMere mental, that is, intellectual labour, is for the soul and has its own satisfaction.
Mahatma GandhiA slave-holder cannot hold a slave without putting himself or his deputy in the cage for holding the slave.
Mahatma GandhiFor a bowl of water give a goodly meal; For a kindly greeting bow thou down with zeal; For a simple penny pay thou back with gold; If thy life be rescued, life do not withhold. Thus the words and actions of the wise regard; Every little service tenfold they reward. But the truly noble know all men as one, And return with gladness good for evil done.
Mahatma Gandhi
