- Mahatma Gandhi

About this Quote

This quote by Mahatma Gandhi is a reminder that creeds are not something that can be changed or placed on at will, like clothes. Creeds are deeply held beliefs that individuals live by for generations. They are not something that can be changed or disposed of quickly. Gandhi is recommending that creeds are something that ought to be appreciated and taken seriously, as they are the structure of a person's identity and worths. He is also emphasizing the value of appreciating the beliefs of others, even if they vary from our own. This quote is a suggestion that creeds are not something to be ignored, however rather something to be appreciated and valued.
