More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
No reform is possible unless some of the educated and the rich voluntarily accept the status of the poor, travel third, refuse to enjoy the amenities denied to the poor and, instead of taking avoidable hardships, discourtesies and injustice as a matter of course, fight for their removal.
Mahatma Gandhi
The end of nonviolent 'war' is always an agreement, never dictation, much less humiliation of the opponent.
Mahatma Gandhi
Human life is a series of compromises, and it is not always easy to achieve in practice what one has found to be true in theory.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man lives freely only by his readiness to die.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man has always desired power. Ownership of property gives this power. Man hankers also after posthumous fame based on power.
Mahatma Gandhi
Great causes cannot be served by intellectual equipment alone, they call for spiritual effort of soul-force.
Mahatma Gandhi
The fullest life is impossible without an immovable belief in a Living Law in obedience to which the whole universe moves.
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
The truth is that God is the force. He is the essence of life. He is pure and undefiled consciousness. He is eternal.
Mahatma Gandhi
No Swaraj government with any pretension to being a popular government can possibly be organised and maintained on a war-footing.
Mahatma Gandhi
Active nonviolence of the brave puts to flight thieves, dacoits, murderers, and prepares an army of volunteers ready to sacrifice themselves in quelling riots, in extinguishing fires and feuds, and so on.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Law which governs all life is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
When anything assumes the strength of a creed, it becomes self-sustained and derives the needed support from within.
Mahatma Gandhi
The measure of a country's greatness should be based on how well it cares for its most vulnerable populations.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we take care of the means, we are bound to reach the end sooner or later. When once we have grasped this point, final victory is beyond question. Whatever difficulties we encounter, whatever apparent reverses we sustain, we may not give up the quest for truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Heroes are made in the hour of defeat. Success is, therefore, well described as a series of glorious defeats.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civil disobedience and excitement and intoxication go ill together.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not believe that the spiritual law works on a field of its own. On the contrary, it expresses itself only through the ordinary activities of life. It thus affects the economic, the social and the political fields.
Mahatma Gandhi
My attempt and prayer are and will be for an honorable peace between belligerent nations in the least possible time.
Mahatma Gandhi
Faith is the function of the heart.
Mahatma Gandhi
