Mahatma Gandhi, the prime architect in India’s freedom movement,

· Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.
· You may never know what results come from your actions, but if you do nothing, there will be no results.

· Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes
