To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man’s injustice to
\nwoman. If by strength is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is woman
\nless brute than man. If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is
\nimmeasurably man’s superior. Has she not greater intuition, is she not
\nmore self-sacrificing, has she not greater powers of endurance, has she
\nnot greater courage? Without her, man could not be. If nonviolence is
\nthe law of our being, the future is with woman. Who can make a more
\neffective appeal to the heart than woman?
\n– Mohandas Gandhi in “Young India”, 10\/4\/1930<\/p>\n
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.
