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
Non-co-operation means nothing less than training in self-sacrifice.
Mahatma Gandhi
Honest disagreement is often a good sign of progress.
Mahatma Gandhi
Only this much I knew - that under ideal conditions, true education could be imparted only by the parents, and that then there should be the minimum of outside help.
Mahatma Gandhi
A successful bloody revolution can only mean further misery for the masses.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let India become alive by self-purification, that is self-restraint and self-denial, and she will be a boon to herself and mankind.
Mahatma Gandhi
My faith in non-co-operation is as bright as ever.
Mahatma Gandhi
No one should dogmatize about the capacity of human nature for degradation or exaltation.
Mahatma Gandhi
An unjust law in itself is an act of violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
I am conscious of my own limitations. That consciousness is my only strength.
Mahatma Gandhi
I want freedom for the full expression of my personality.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, rules us we would have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that the so-called civilised men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis of society was violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
I shall content myself with merely declaring my firm conviction that, for the seeker who would live in fear of God and who would see Him face to face, restraint in diet both as to quantity and quality is as essential as restraint in thought and speech.
Mahatma Gandhi
Imperfect men have no right to judge other imperfect men.
Mahatma Gandhi
With every true friendship we build more firmly the foundations on which the peace of the whole world rests. Thought by thought and act by act, with every breath we build more firmly the kingdom of non-violence that is the true home of the spirit of humanity.
Mahatma Gandhi
Self-suppression is often necessary in the interest of truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have been known as a crank, faddist, madman. Evidently the reputation is well deserved. For wherever I go, I draw to myself cranks, faddists, and madmen.
Mahatma Gandhi
Being dissatisfied and properly dissatisfied with the husk of Hinduism, you are in danger of losing even the kernel, life itself.
Mahatma Gandhi
When a slave begins to take pride in his fetters and hugs them like precious ornaments, the triumph of the slave-owner is complete.
Mahatma Gandhi
I came in contact with every known Indian anarchist in London. Their bravery impressed me, but I felt that their zeal was misguided. I felt that violence was no remedy for India's ills, and that her civilisation required the use of a different and higher weapon for self-protection. - Hind Swaraj
