Listener
Non-Violence
Purpose
“The object of this massive tribute died as he
always lived. A private man, without wealth
or property, without official title or office.
Mahatma Gandhi was not the commander of
armies, nor a ruler of vast lands. He could not
boast any scientific achievement, nor artistic
gift.
Yet men, governments, dignitaries from all
over the world, have joined together today to
pay homage to this little brown man in the
loin cloth, who led his country to freedom. In
the words of General George C Marshall, the
American Secretary of State, ‘Mahatma
Gandhi has become the spokesman for the
conscience of all mankind. He was a man who
made humility and simple truth more
powerful than empires.”
- American broadcaster Edward R
Murrow at the funeral of Mohandas K
Gandhi
