More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
There would be nothing to frighten you if you refused to be afraid.
Mahatma Gandhi
This campaign of non-cooperation has no reference to diplomacy, secret or open. The only diplomacy it admits of is the statement and pursuance of truth at any cost.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is the law of our species as violence is the law of the brute.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though I cannot claim to be a Christian in the sectarian sense, the example of Jesus suffering is a factor in the composition of my undying faith in non-violence which rules all my actions, worldly and temporal.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the duty of a non-co-operator to preach disaffection towards the existing order of things. Non-co-operators are but giving disciplined expression to a nation's outraged feelings.
Mahatma Gandhi
We do want to drive out the beast in man, but we do not want on that account to emasculate him.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Bhagavadgita is a gospel of non-co-operation between the forces of darkness and those of light.
Mahatma Gandhi
You will find that God is always by the side of the fearless.
Mahatma Gandhi
Good travels at a snail's pace. Those who want to do good are not selfish, they are not in a hurry, they know that to impregnate people with good requires a long time.
Mahatma Gandhi
Many could forgo heavy meals, a full wardrobe, a fine house, etcetera. It is the ego they cannot forgo.
Mahatma Gandhi
I claim to represent all the cultures, for my religion, whatever it may be called, demands the fulfillment of all the cultures.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you worry about yesterday's failures, then today's successes will be few. The future depends on what we do in the present
Mahatma Gandhi
God lives, but not as we. His creatures live but to die. But God is life. Therefore, goodness is not an attribute. Goodness is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let your life be your message.
Mahatma Gandhi
History is a record of perpetual wars, but we are now trying to make new history.
Mahatma Gandhi
The essence of true religious teaching is that one should serve and befriend all.
Mahatma Gandhi
Woman, I hold, is the personification of self-sacrifice, but unfortunately today she does not realize what a tremendous advantage she has over man. As Tolstoy used to say, they are laboring under the hypnotic influence of man. If they would realize the strength of non-violence they would not consent to be called the weaker sex.
Mahatma Gandhi
I will not have the power of nonviolence to be underestimated in order to cover my limitations or weaknesses.
Mahatma Gandhi
The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated. I hold that the more helpless a creature the more entitled it is to protection by man from the cruelty of humankind.
Mahatma Gandhi
My religion is a matter solely between my Maker and myself.
Mahatma Gandhi
