Gandhi was a shy young man with a long, unusual name. Apparently, he was so nervous during his first court case that he fled the courtroom! However, he grew to become one of the most eloquent leaders of the world. At a time when India was fighting for Independence leading to umimaginable acts of violence, this simply dressed, khadhi-clad, mild-mannered man shocked everyone by suggesting 'non-violence' and 'civil disobedience' as the best means of protest.
