More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
No empire intoxicated with the red wine of power and the plunder of weaker races has yet lived long in this world.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Indian struggle is not anti-British, it is anti-exploitation, anti-foreign rule, not anti-foreigners.
Mahatma Gandhi
The secret of a happy life lies in renunciation. Renunciation is life.
Mahatma Gandhi
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
Whether humanity will consciously follow the law of love, I do not know. But that need not disturb me. The law will work just as the law of gravitation works whether we accept it or not.
Mahatma Gandhi

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.

Mahatma Gandhi
What is a man if he is not a thief who openly charges as much as he can for the goods he sells?
Mahatma Gandhi
Each night, when I go to sleep, I die. And the next morning, when I wake up, I am reborn.
Mahatma Gandhi
My freedom from hatred - I would even claim for myself individually, my love - for those who consider themselves to be my enemies, does not make me blind to their faults.
Mahatma Gandhi
A nation that is capable of limitless sacrifice is capable of rising to limitless heights. The purer the sacrifice the quicker the progress.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe that there is no prayer without fasting, and there is no real fast without prayer.
Mahatma Gandhi
The greater the realization of truth and ahimsa, the greater the illumination.
Mahatma Gandhi
At the individual level Swaraj is vitally connected with the capacity for dispassionate self-assessment , ceaseless self purification and growing self-reliance.... It is Swaraj when we learn to rule ourselves
Mahatma Gandhi
India is less manly under the British rule than she ever was before.
Mahatma Gandhi
Ahimsa means infinite love, which again means infinite capacity for suffering.
Mahatma Gandhi
Violence will prevail over violence, only when someone can prove to me that darkness can be dispelled by darkness
Mahatma Gandhi
