Mahatma Gandhi
At the individual level Swaraj is vitally connected with the capacity for dispassionate self-assessment , ceaseless self purification and growing self-reliance.... It is Swaraj when we learn to rule ourselves

Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Jealousy does not wait for reasons.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is nothing on earth that I would not give up, excepting of course, two things and two things only, truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
My non-violence bids me dedicate myself to the service of the minorities.
Mahatma Gandhi
The use of soul-force for turning stones into bread would have been considered, as it is still considered, as black magic.
Mahatma Gandhi
Celibacy is a great help, inasmuch as it enables one to lead a life of full surrender to God.
Mahatma Gandhi
We Hindus and Mohamedans would have to blame our folly rather than the English, if we allowed them to put us asunder.
