Where To See Statues Of Gandhi



I delivered an opening speech to a Toastmasters International meeting featuring a quotation by Gandhi.

Gandhi's Quotes

  • Be the change you want to see.
  • Earth provides enough for every man's needs, but not every man's greed.
  • You do not know who is important to you until you lose them.
  • An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.
  • Happiness is when what you think, say and do are in harmony.
Attributed to Gandhi:
The customer is not an interruption of our work, he is the purpose of it. A longer version reads:

  • A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. 
  • He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him.
  •  He is not an interruption of our work. He is the purpose of it. 
  • He is not an outsider of our business. He is part of it. 
  • We are not doing him a favour by serving him. He is doing us a favour by giving us the opportunity to do so.”
