  11. “There are many causes I am prepared to die for, but none I am prepared to kill for” says Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, a peaceful protester against Indian discrimination. As the sun rises over the nearby hills, A bald, unkempt man starts down his street on his morning walk. Gandhi is known as a hero and leader. He was born on October second, 1869 and died January 30, 1948. As a boy, sadly, he didn't have anything that we have today, from comfortable beds, to toys to play with . At age 13 he was married to a girl named Kastwfia and they later had four children, Haulal, Manilal, Ramdas, and Devadas that he loved with all his heart. In the middle of his life he became a peaceful protester, capable of tremendous perseverance. He played a prominent role in the Indian independence Movement of South Africa. As life progressed, he protested more and at one point was thrown off a train because he refused to move from first class to third class. In South Africa, he told fellow protesters to refuse and suffer, rather than use violence and that became one of his major philosophies for the rest of his life. I believe that that was an illogical decision, for he just let the enemy get him, instead of getting the enemy. Gandhi had many morals that he believes all his life. Faith, truth, and nonviolence were morals of Gandhi's, as well as vegetarianism, swaraj(self- control), and simplicity. Another one of his morals was brahmacharya(devotion). The last one he got when he was older and his father passed away, he became incredibly devoted to his mother. A trait of his was fairness and truthfulness. It is said that Gandhi never broke a promise. To conclude, Gandhi lived a long life and he was always devoted to his morals and he never, ever gave up. As the ragged man with thick glasses and dressed in rags returned to his house after his walk, he realizes that after he is gone he will be a very influential man. “There are many causes that I am prepared to die for none I am prepared to kill for” is, in a nutshell, a summary of all that Gandhi ever stood for.
