About This Quote

"Men, I say, but better to call them human spiders that go crawling in between and under the tables with rags in their hands, crushed humans...) "Gandhiji was not merely a speaker of words, but a man who lived his words. He used to say that he is not afraid of anyone who can shoot an arrow at him from a distance of three feet. He was equally unafraid of those who were shooting arrows from three yards away. There was an incident which took place when Gandhiji and his wife were traveling in a train and the lady attendant came and told Gandhiji to take off his shoes as they had mud on them.

Gandhji said to her: "Do you know who we are? We are the Mahatma and the Mahatma's wife." (Madhumati) "We are human beings like you" she replied. "You may be like us but we are not like you." Gandhiji said. This happened in 1895.

The reader can imagine what Gandhji thought about those who were serving him all those years without being able to understand his feelings.
