More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
A great man may not do great things but they do ordinary things greatly.
Mahatma Gandhi
Enter with me into the sufferings, not only of the people of India but of the whole world. Nonviolence is a more active and real fight against wickedness than retaliation whose very nature is to increase wickedness. It is not a weapon of the weak. It is a weapon of the strongest and bravest.
Mahatma Gandhi
Human language can but imperfectly describe God's ways. I am sensible of the fact that they are indescribable and inscrutable. But if mortal man will dare to describe them, he has no better medium than his own inarticulate speech.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man's happiness really lies in contentment.
Mahatma Gandhi
If it weren't for Christians, I'd be a Christian.
Mahatma Gandhi
Fearlessness is the first requisite of spirituality. Cowards can never be moral.
Mahatma Gandhi
To get Swaraj is to get rid of our helplessness.
Mahatma Gandhi
As long as you are trying your very best, there can be no question of failure.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have also seen children successfully surmounting the effects of an evil inheritance. That is due to purity being an inherent attribute of the soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
Men are good. But they are poor victims making themselves miserable under the false belief that they are doing good.
Mahatma Gandhi
Ahimsa is the highest ideal. It is meant for the brave, never for the cowardly.
Mahatma Gandhi
The purer I try to become, the nearer I feel to be to God.
Mahatma Gandhi
When there is war, the poet lays down the lyre, the lawyer his law reports, the schoolboy his books.
Mahatma Gandhi
True morality consists not in following the beaten track, but in finding the true path for ourselves, and fearlessly following it.
Mahatma Gandhi
The whole world is like the human body with its various members. Pain in one member is felt in the whole body.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violent resistance implies the very opposite of weakness. Defiance combined with non-retaliatory acceptance of repression from one's opponents is active, not passive. It requires strength, and there is nothing automatic or intuitive about the resoluteness required for using non-violent methods in political struggle and the quest for Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe that just as everyone inherits a particular form so does he inherit the particular characteristics and qualities of his progenitors, and to make this admission is to conserve one's energy.
Mahatma Gandhi
Anything which is a hindrance to the fight of the soul is a delusion and a snare, even like the body which often does hinder you in the path of salvation.
Mahatma Gandhi
My plea is for banishing the English language as a cultural usurper, as we successfully banished the political rule of the English usurper.
Mahatma Gandhi
Tolstoy's so-called inconsistencies were a sign of his development and his passionate regard for truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
