Gandhian thoughts: Love never claims, it ever gives. Love ever suffers, never resents, never revenges itself.

“”    I have heard many of our countrymen say that we will gain American wealth, but avoid its methods. I venture     to suggest that such an attempt, if it were made, is foredoomed to failure. We cannot be ‘wise, temperate and     furious’ in a moment. (SW, pp. 353-4)”

My aim is not to be consistent with my previous statements on a given question, but to be consistent with truth as it may present itself to me at a given moment. The result has been that I have grown from truth to truth. (H, 30-9-1939, p288)

I believe that the sum total of the energy of mankind is not to bring us down but to lift us up, and that is the result of the definite, if unconscious, working of the law of love. The fact that mankind persists shows that the cohesive force is greater than the disruptive force, centripetal force greater than centrifugal.

Love never claims, it ever gives. Love ever suffers, never resents, never revenges itself.
