Emotional and Verbal Abuse

McEldowney wrote of his meeting with Mahatma Gandhi in Sevagram, India, a few years before he was assassinated: “We sat with him on the floor of his little dwelling. We feel humbled in the presence of such a great man. We asked him many questions regarding the future of India and as he answered us we could see that he had many plans for his country.

The excess of critical words does [...]
