More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Intellect takes us along in the battle of life to a certain limit, but at the crucial moment it fails us. Faith transcends reason. It is when the horizon is the darkest and human reason is beaten down to the ground that faith shines brightest and comes to our rescue.
Mahatma Gandhi
The mind may wander, but let not the senses wander with it. If the senses wander where the mind takes them, one is done for.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
When there is war, the poet lays down the lyre, the lawyer his law reports, the schoolboy his books.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man's happiness really lies in contentment.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
