More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
In His boundless love God permits the atheist to live.
Mahatma Gandhi
God has given us only a limited sphere of action and a limited vision.
Mahatma Gandhi
By using violence to subjugate one another we are using violence against our own souls.
Mahatma Gandhi
Insistence on truth can come into play when one party practices untruth or injustice. Only then can love be tested. True friendship is put to the test only when one party disregards the obligation of friendship.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you will express the requisite purity of character in action, you cannot do it better than through the spinning wheel.
Mahatma Gandhi
Woman, I hold, is the personification of self-sacrifice, but unfortunately today she does not realize what a tremendous advantage she has over man. As Tolstoy used to say, they are laboring under the hypnotic influence of man. If they would realize the strength of non-violence they would not consent to be called the weaker sex.
Mahatma Gandhi
That I want to destroy British imperialism is another matter, but I want to do so by converting those who are associated with it.
Mahatma Gandhi
The privilege of resisting or disobeying a particular law or order accrues only to him who gives willing and unswerving obedience to the laws laid down for him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth, purity, self-control, firmness, fearlessness, humility, unity, peace, and renunciation - these are the inherent qualities of a civil resister.
Mahatma Gandhi
We must become the change we want to see.
Mahatma Gandhi
Where there are millions upon millions of units of idle labour, it is no use thinking of labour-saving devices.
Mahatma Gandhi
In a democratic scheme, money invested in the promotion of learning gives a tenfold return to the people even as a seed sown in good soil returns a luxuriant crop.
Mahatma Gandhi
The highest fulfillment of religion requires a giving up of all possessions.
Mahatma Gandhi
Active nonviolence of the brave puts to flight thieves, dacoits, murderers, and prepares an army of volunteers ready to sacrifice themselves in quelling riots, in extinguishing fires and feuds, and so on.
Mahatma Gandhi
Self-sacrifice of one innocent man is a million times more potent than the sacrifice of a million men who die in the act of killing others.
Mahatma Gandhi
True art takes note not merely of form but also of what lies behind.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is no non-violence if we merely love those that love us. It is non-violence only when we love those that hate us.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man is neither mere intellect not the gross animal body, nor the heart or soul alone.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I seem to take part in politics, it is only because politics encircles us today like the coil of a snake from which one cannot get out, no matter how much one tries. I wish therefore to wrestle with the snake.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civil disobedience and excitement and intoxication go ill together.
Mahatma Gandhi
