Ours is a civil fight, and imprisonment as a civil prisoner has got to be earned by the strict observance of the programme.
Mahatma GandhiTo call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man's injustice to woman. If by strength is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is woman less brute than man. If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man's superior.
Mahatma GandhiNanda broke down every barrier and won his way to freedom not by brag, not by bluster, but by the purest form of self-suffering.
Mahatma GandhiI have naturally formed the habit of restraining my thoughts. A thoughtless word hardly ever escaped my tongue or pen. Experience has taught me that silence is part of the spiritual discipline of a votary of truth. We find so many people impatient to talk. All this talking can hardly be said to be of any benefit to the world. It is so much waste of time. My shyness has been in reality my shield and buckler. It has allowed me to grow. It has helped me in my discernment of truth.
