Mahatma GandhiOrganization of khaddar is infinitely better than co-operative societies or any other form of village organization.
Mahatma GandhiWe find the general work of mankind is being carried on from day to day by the mass of people acting in harmony as if by instinct. If they were instinctively violent, the world would end in no time.
