More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The Law which governs all life is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is no road to freedom, freedom is the road.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth is not truth merely because it is ancient. Nor is truth necessarily to be regarded with suspicion because it is ancient.
Mahatma Gandhi
Do not judge others. Be your own judge and you will be truly happy. If you will try to judge others, you are likely to burn your fingers.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing enduring can be built on violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
How can one be compelled to accept slavery? I simply refuse to do the master's bidding. He may torture me, break my bones to atoms and even kill me. He will then have my dead body, not my obedience. Ultimately, therefore, it is I who am the victor and not he, for he has failed in getting me to do what he wanted done.
Mahatma Gandhi
An India awakened and free has a message of peace and goodwill to a groaning world.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hitler is a scourge sent by God to punish men for their iniquities.
Mahatma Gandhi
To remove untouchability is a penance that caste Hindus owe to Hinduism and to themselves.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civil disobedience does not admit of any violence or countenancing of violence directly or indirectly.
Mahatma Gandhi
Khadi to me is the symbol of unity of Indian humanity, of its economic freedom and equality and, therefore, ultimately, in the poetic expression of Jawaharlal Nehru, 'the livery of India's freedom'.
Mahatma Gandhi
The truest test of civilization, culture and dignity is character and not clothing.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let no one charge me with ever having abused or encouraged weakness or surrendered on matters of principle. But I have said, as I say again, that every trifle must not be dignified into a principle.
Mahatma Gandhi
God is always the upholder of justice.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth, which is permanent, eludes the historian of events. Truth transcends history.
Mahatma Gandhi
There's no God higher than truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Just as there are signs by which you can recognize violence with the naked eye, so is the spinning wheel to me a decisive sign of nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
My only sanction is the love and affection in which you hold me. But it has its weaknesses, as it has its strengths.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is poor faith that needs fair weather for standing firm. That alone is true faith that stands the foulest weather.
Mahatma Gandhi
I shall never know God if I do not wrestle with and against evil, even at the cost of life itself.
Mahatma Gandhi
