More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
I cannot conceive of a greater loss than the loss of one's self-respect.
Mahatma Gandhi
Ramanama purifies while it cures, and, therefore, it elevates.
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
Proved right should be capable of being vindicated by right means as against the rude i.e. sanguinary means. Man may and should shed his own blood for establishing what he considers to be his right. He may not shed the blood of his opponent who disputes his 'right'.
Mahatma Gandhi
There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.
Mahatma Gandhi
Unless our hands go hand in hand with our heads, we will be able to do nothing whatsoever.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Mental violence has no potency and injures only the person whose thoughts are violent. It is otherwise with mental non-violence. It has potency which the world does not yet know.
Mahatma Gandhi
Idleness is the great plague of India.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our prayer is a heart search. It is a reminder to ourselves that we are helpless without His support.
Mahatma Gandhi
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Mahatma Gandhi
Look at the sparrows they do not know what they will do in the next moment. Let us literally live from moment to moment.
Mahatma Gandhi
I retain the opinion that council entry is inconsistent with non-co-operation as I conceive it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Experience gained in two schools under my control has taught me that punishment does not purify, if anything, it hardens children.
Mahatma Gandhi
In Swaraj, based on ahimsa, people need not know their rights, but it is also necessary for them to know their duties.
Mahatma Gandhi
The measure of a country's greatness should be based on how well it cares for its most vulnerable populations.
Mahatma Gandhi
I came alone in this world, I have walked alone in the valley of the shadow of death, and I shall quit alone when the time comes.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have but shadowed forth my intense longing to lose myself in the Eternal and become merely a lump of clay in the Potter's divine hands so that my service may become more certain because uninterrupted by the baser self in me.
Mahatma Gandhi
There would be nothing to frighten you if you refused to be afraid.
Mahatma Gandhi
