More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
There is no one without faults, not even men of God. They are men of God not because they are faultless, but because they know their faults, they strive against them, they do not hide them, and are ever ready to correct themselves.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
The more I reflect and look back on the past, the more vividly do I feel my limitations.
Mahatma Gandhi
What may appear as truth to one person will often appear as untruth to another person. But that need not worry the seeker. When there is honest effort, it will be realised that what appears to be different truths are like apparently different countless leaves of the same tree.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we have the khadi spirit in us, then we should surround ourselves with simplicity in every walk of life.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism is a living organism. One and indivisible at the root, it has grown into a vast tree with innumerable branches. Knowledge is limitless and so also the application of truth. Everyday we add to our knowledge of the power of Atman (soul) and we shall keep on doing so.
Mahatma Gandhi
