More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence of the strong cannot be a mere policy. It must be a creed, or a passion, if 'creed' is objected to.
Mahatma Gandhi
I may have become Christian, were it not for Christians.
Mahatma Gandhi
That which makes man the mere plaything of fate is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
I travel third-class because there is no fouth-class.
Mahatma Gandhi
We cannot, in a moment, get rid of habits of a lifetime.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man must choose either of the two courses, the upward or the downward but as he has the brute in him, he will more easily choose the downward course than the upward, especially when the downward course is presented to him in a beautiful garb. Man easily capitulates when sin is presented in the garb of virtue.
Mahatma Gandhi
I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our struggle consists in showing that our nonviolence is neither a cloak to hide our violence or hatred, nor a preparation for violence in the near or distant future.
Mahatma Gandhi
True ahimsa should mean a complete freedom from ill-will and anger and hate and an overflowing love for all.
Mahatma Gandhi
A selfish basis would not serve the purpose of taking a man higher and higher along the paths of evolution.
Mahatma Gandhi
Religion is a matter of the heart. No physical inconvenience can warrant abandonment of one's own religion.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every murder or other injury, no matter for what cause, committed or inflicted on another is a crime against humanity.
Mahatma Gandhi
A literal interpretation of the Gita lands one in a sea of contradictions.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violence ... is the only thing that the atom bomb cannot destroy. I did not move a muscle when I first heard that the atom bomb had wiped out Hiroshima. On the contrary, I said to myself, Unless now the world adopts non-violence, it will spell certain suicide for mankind.
Mahatma Gandhi
A man of truth must also be a man of care.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you approached people with trust and affection you would have ten-fold trust and thousand-fold.
Mahatma Gandhi
Remember there is always a limit to self-indulgence, none to restraint... Civilization , in the real sense of the term, consists not in the multiplication but in the deliberate and voluntary restriction of wants. This alone promotes real happiness and contentment , and increases the capacity for service .
Mahatma Gandhi
There is nothing but nonviolence to fall back upon for retaining our freedom, even as we had to do for gaining it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Purification is never for the selfishly idle, it accrues only to the selflessly industrious.
Mahatma Gandhi
I must not serve a distant neighbour at the expense of the nearest.
Mahatma Gandhi
