He left a legacy not only as a political figure but also as a writer, with over one hundred volumes of collected writings and an influence that touched one of Australia’s great writers, Patrick White.¹ In July 2017, I had occasion to visit Parliament Square in London, and the statue that captured my attention was that of Mahatma Gandhi.²
