The quote "Earth provides enough to satisfy everyman`s need but not everyman`s greed" is often attributed to Mahatma Gandhi. This statement alludes to the idea that the Earth has abundant resources to meet the basic needs of every individual, such as food, water, and shelter. However, if people become greedy and consume more than what they truly need, they can deplete these resources, causing a scarcity for others. Mahatma Gandhi believed in a philosophy of simplicity and self-sufficiency, emphasizing the importance of living in harmony with nature and not exploiting its resources excessively. By promoting an attitude of contentment and moderation, Gandhi encouraged individuals to recognize their needs and avoid being driven by insatiable greed.
