Editorial Note
This quote is most often attributed to Mahatma Gandhi, but there is no strong evidence that he said or wrote those exact words. It is also sometimes circulated as a broader inspirational saying without a clear source. The idea matches Gandhi’s philosophy, but the wording appears to be a modern paraphrase rather than a verified quote.
