[quote=Wikipedia]Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (Gujarati: મોહનદાસ કરમચંદ ગાંધી, pronounced [moːɦən̪d̪aːs kərəmʨən̪d̪ ɡaːn̪d̪ʱiː] ( listen); 2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948) was the pre-eminent political and spiritual leader of India during the Indian independence movement. He pioneered satyagraha. This is defined as resistance to tyranny through mass civil disobedience, a philosophy firmly founded upon ahimsa, or total nonviolence. This concept helped India to gain independence, and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. Gandhi is often referred to as Mahatma Gandhi ([məɦaːt̪maː]; Sanskrit: महात्मा mahātmā or "Great Soul", an honorific first applied to him by Rabindranath Tagore),.[1] In India he is also called Bapu (Gujarati: બાપુ, bāpu or "Father"). He is officially honoured in India as the Father of the Nation; his birthday, 2 October, is commemorated there as Gandhi Jayanti, a national holiday, and worldwide as the International Day of Non-Violence.[/quote]
So yeah, Gandhi is an awesome guy who unfortunately got shot by some ass. He is in my opinion one of the most influential people that has lived.
Happy birthday, old pal! :buddy:
I love moɦən̪d̪aːs kərəmʨən̪d̪ ɡan̪d̪ʱi
I will nuke him in Civ V to celebrate.
I'm doing my RE project on him. Happy birthday Mo!
“You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.”
- Mahatma Gandhi
Really like that quote.
He's really skinny.
I love studying followers of nonviolent resistance. America needs more of it.
Well Happy birthday Gandhi!
Yay. My birthday is tomorrow too :).

Not if he nukes you first.
Dammit, Ghandi. Always building next to me.

Ghandi, now there's a fellow to be admired -- He managed to talk down the british empire, when decades of violent uprising had failed!
Also, He's a [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfvLcozLwtE"]One man wrecking crew.[/URL]
Whoa, I was just talking about ghandi like an hour ago

Two quotes that I like.
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. -Gandhi
I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ. - Gandhi

He was pretty racist, but you have to blame the Hindu caste system for that.
Was a cool guy.
I hate Ghandi.
Nuff' said.

What I find weird is that tomorrow is my birthday, and for some reason, I always think that I don't need to get into physical violence to prove a point.
