More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
I cannot imagine anything nobler or more national than that for, say, one hour in the day we should all do the labor the poor must do, and thus identify ourselves with them and through them, with all mankind.
Mahatma Gandhi
The purpose of life is undoubtedly to know oneself. We cannot do it unless we learn to identify ourselves with all that lives. The sum-total of that life is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Disorder and violence are, in fact, things that might check the pace of India's progress.
Mahatma Gandhi
Mental violence has no potency and injures only the person whose thoughts are violent. It is otherwise with mental non-violence. It has potency which the world does not yet know.
Mahatma Gandhi
My religion is a matter solely between my Maker and myself.
Mahatma Gandhi
You assist an administration most effectively by obeying its orders and decrees. An evil administration never deserves such allegiance. Allegiance to it means partaking of the evil. A good man will therefore resist an evil system or administration with his whole soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
The first condition of nonviolence is justice all round, in every department of life.
Mahatma Gandhi
A jailer is as much a prisoner as his prisoner.
Mahatma Gandhi
The truth is that God is the force. He is the essence of life. He is pure and undefiled consciousness. He is eternal.
Mahatma Gandhi
You don't know who is important to you until you actually lose them.
Mahatma Gandhi
In order that knowledge may not run riot, the author of the Gita has insisted on devotion accompanying it and has given it the first place.
Mahatma Gandhi
The future depends on what we do in the present.
Mahatma Gandhi
They may torture my body, break my bones, even kill me. Then they will have my dead body, but not my obedience.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man cannot breathe with borrowed lungs.
Mahatma Gandhi
That service is the noblest which is rendered for its own sake.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let everyone try and find that as a result of daily prayer he adds something new to his life, something with which nothing can be compared.
Mahatma Gandhi
Will Great Britain have an unwilling India dragged into war or a willing ally co-operating with her in the prosecution of a defence of true democracy?
Mahatma Gandhi
Purity of mind and idleness are incompatible.
Mahatma Gandhi
The West has yet to discover anything so hygienic as the Indian toothstick.
Mahatma Gandhi
The greatest menace to the world today is the growing, exploiting, irresponsible imperialism.
Mahatma Gandhi
