Mohandas Karamchand 'Mahatma' Gandhi

1869-1948, Indian Spiritual Leader

Action/Effort
The goal ever recedes from us. The greater the progress the greater the recognition of our unworthiness. Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment. Full effort is full victory.
in Eknath Easwaran, Gandhi, The Man , 1997
Appearance / Form
Not till the spirit is changed can the form be altered. The form is merely an expression of the spirit within. We may succeed in seemingly altering the form but the alteration will be a mere make-believe if the spirit within remains unalterable.
"Non-Violence - The Greatest Force," The Hindu , 1926 November 8
