The quote from Mahatma
Gandhi, “an ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching,” helps him
encourage his fellow citizens from the developing country, India, to make
something to improve it. India had been
dramatically changed by colonialism and further more it had created internal pressures
whether to continue industrialization or to go back to agrarian methods which
brought about problems within different religions in India. Martin Luther King Jr. had a quote, “our
lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” His intention was obviously to help inspire
people to create a desegregated and equal nation. Its goal was to help change people and to
motivate people to speak about, and act upon bad actions to help improve
society overall. Both of these quotes by
Gandhi and MLK both aim to improve society and motivate people to do something
good and stand up for what is right.
