GREAT SOUL
GREAT SOUL
Mahatma Gandhi and His Struggle with India
I do not know whether you have seen the world as it really is. For myself I can say I perceive the world in its grim reality every moment.
I deny being a visionary. I do not accept the claim of saintliness. I am of the earth, earthy ... I am prone to as many weaknesses as you are. But I have seen the world. I have lived in the world with my eyes open.
I am not a quick despairer.
For men like me, you have to measure them not by the rare moments of greatness in their lives, but by the amount of dust they collect on their feet in the course of life's journey.
