- Mahatma Gandhi

About this Quote

This quote by Mahatma Gandhi speaks to the significance of inclusivity in any culture. He is suggesting that a culture can not make it through if it tries to be exclusive, suggesting that it just allows specific individuals to be part of it. This could be due to elements such as race, religious beliefs, gender, or any other type of discrimination. By excluding specific individuals, a culture is not just rejecting them the chance to be part of it, however it is likewise rejecting itself the chance to gain from the special viewpoints and contributions of those people. In order for a culture to prosper, it needs to be open to all people, despite their distinctions. Just then can it really be a dynamic and varied culture that can grow and progress.
