More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
There is a world-wide conflict between capital and labour, and the poor envy the rich.
Mahatma Gandhi
To conceal ignorance is to increase it. An honest confession of it, however, gives ground for the hope that it will diminish some day or the other.
Mahatma Gandhi
... the true function of a lawyer was to unite parties driven asunder.
Mahatma Gandhi
Just as one must learn the art of killing in the training for violence, so one must learn the art of dying in the training for nonviolence.
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
We become Godlike to the extent we realize nonviolence, but we can never become wholly God.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I were asked to define the Hindu creed, I should simply say: search after Truth through non-violent means. Hinduism is a relentless pursuit after truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
India is less manly under the British rule than she ever was before.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even a little untruth destroys a man, as a drop of poison ruins milk.
Mahatma Gandhi
War is an unmitigated evil. But it certainly does one good thing. It drives away fear and brings bravery to the surface.
Mahatma Gandhi
A society or a nation constructed nonviolently must be able to withstand attack upon its structure from without or within.
Mahatma Gandhi
When a tiger changes his nature, Englishmen will change theirs.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing depends upon the death of an individual, be he ever so great, but much depends upon the freedom of India.
Mahatma Gandhi
Give the villagers village arithmetic, village geography, village history and the literary knowledge that they must use daily, i.e. reading and writing letters, etc.
Mahatma Gandhi
A dissolute character is more dissolute in thought than in deed. And the same is true of violence. Our violence in word and deed is but a feeble echo of the surging violence of thought in us.
Mahatma Gandhi
A true and nonviolent combination of labour would act like a magnet attracting to it all the needed capital.
Mahatma Gandhi
Happiness eludes us if we run after it.
Mahatma Gandhi
If that is the law of life we must work it out in daily exisitance. Wherever there are wars, wherever we are confronted with an opponent, conquer by love. I have found that the certain law of love has answered in my own life as the law of destruction has never done.
Mahatma Gandhi
There are times when you have to obey a call which is the highest of all, i.e. the voice of conscience even though such obedience may cost many a bitter tear, and even more, separation from friends, from family, from the state, to which you may belong, from all that you have held as dear as life itself. For this obedience is the law of our being.
Mahatma Gandhi
The socialistic conception of the West was born in an environment reeking with violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
