Mahatma Gandhi
I should love to satisfy all, if I possibly can but in trying to satisfy all, I may be able to satisfy none. I have, therefore, arrived at the conclusion that the best course is to satisfy one’s own conscience and leave the world to form its own judgment, favorable or otherwise.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
Mahatma Gandhi
Ahimsa calls for the strength and courage to suffer without retaliation, to receive blows without returning any.
Mahatma Gandhi
Manliness consists not in bluff, bravado or loneliness. It consists in daring to do the right thing and facing consequences whether it is in matters social, political or other. It consists in deeds not words.
Mahatma Gandhi
We want freedom for our country, but not at the expense or exploitation of others, not so as to degrade other countries.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism would not have been much of a religion if Rama had not steeled his heart against every temptation.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Gita is not for those who have no faith.
Mahatma Gandhi
Knowledge of the tallest scientist or the greatest spiritualist is like a particle of dust.
Mahatma Gandhi
Swadeshism is not a cult of hatred. It is a doctrine of selfless service that has its roots in the purest ahimsa, i.e. love.
Mahatma Gandhi
