The best government and the happiest of men

"Which is the best government? That which teaches us to govern ourselves."

"Who is the happiest of men? He who values the merits of others, And in their pleasure takes joy, even as though 'twere his own."

~ Goethe

Gandhi's ideal society

The ideally non-violent state will be an ordered anarchy. That State is the best governed which is governed the least.

~ Mahatma Gandhi
