The goal ever recedes from us. The greater the progress the greater the recognition of our unworthiness. Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment. Full effort is full victory.

More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
No two leaves were alike, and yet there is no antagonism between them or between the branches on which they grow.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I were asked to define the Hindu creed, I should simply say: search after Truth through non-violent means. Hinduism is a relentless pursuit after truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our prayer is a heart search. It is a reminder to ourselves that we are helpless without His support.
Mahatma Gandhi
Everyone holds a piece of the truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we have the khadi spirit in us, then we should surround ourselves with simplicity in every walk of life.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man can only conceive God within the limitation of his own mind.
Mahatma Gandhi
Selfishness is blind.
Mahatma Gandhi
The essence of all religions is one. Only their approaches are different.
Mahatma Gandhi
We do not know the laws of God, nor their working.
Mahatma Gandhi
My Hindu instinct tells me that all religions are more or less true.
Mahatma Gandhi
If fighting for the legislatures meant a sacrifice of truth and nonviolence, democracy would not be worth a moment's purchase.
Mahatma Gandhi
Ahimsa is nothing if not a well-balanced, exquisite consideration for one's neighbour, and an idle man is wanting in that elementary consideration.
Mahatma Gandhi
Sacrifice that causes pain is no sacrifice at all. True sacrifice is joy-giving and uplifting.
Mahatma Gandhi
We cry for cow protection in the name of religion, but we refuse protection to the human cow in the shape of the girl-widow.
Mahatma Gandhi
The sacrifice which causes sorrow to the doer of the sacrifice is no sacrifice. Real sacrifice lightens the mind of the doer and gives him a sense of peace and joy. The Buddha gave up the pleasures of life because they had become painful to him.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I had no sense of humor I should long ago have committed suicide.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is the virtue of the manly. The coward is innocent of it.
Mahatma Gandhi
We become Godlike to the extent we realize nonviolence, but we can never become wholly God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Without satyagraha carried out in the proper spirit, there is no victory, no Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence in the sense of mere non-killing does not appear to me, therefore, to be of any improvement on the technique of violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
