About This Quote
Gandhi said, “There are times when the world is rearranging itself, and at times like that, the right words can change the world.” He believed that the right words could spark change. When people do something for the wrong reasons or with the wrong intent, it may not change the world; however, if they change their minds and do what they believe is right, their actions can still make a difference.
