More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Action is no less necessary than thought to the instinctive tendencies of the human frame.
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
Outward appearance is nothing to Him if it is not an expression of the inner.
Mahatma Gandhi
When there is no desire for fruit, there is also no temptation for untruth or himsa.

Carefully watch your thoughts, for they become your words. Manage and watch your words, for they will become your actions. Consider and judge your actions, for they have become your habits.

Mahatma Gandhi
