MAHATMA GANDHI on PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM.
“My patriotism is not an exclusive thing. It is all embracing and I should reject that patriotism which sought to mount upon the distress or exploitation of other nationalities.
The conception of my patriotism is nothing if it is not always, in every case without exception, consistent with the broadest good of humanity at large.”
“My nationalism, fierce though it is, is not exclusive, is not devised to harm any nation or individual. Legal maxims are not so legal as they are moral. I believe in the external truth of ‘sic utere tuo ut alienum non laedas’. (Use thy own property so as not to injure thy neighbour’s).”
