Letter From Gandhiji To Sarojini Naidu, June 9, 1945

Panchgani,
June 9, 1945

My dear Singer,

I have kept yours of 13th ultimo just to give you a few lines of love for your great motherly affection. Your wire was good as from a philosopher, who could put her philosophy to practice at the right moment. Your letter brings out a mother's affection at its best. I do not know whether to love you best as a poetess, philosopher or mother? Tell me.

Love.

Spinner
