More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
It's not just words. Action expresses priorities.
Mahatma Gandhi
Anger and intolerance are the twin enemies of correct understanding.
Mahatma Gandhi
The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust. The world crushes the dust under its feet, but the seeker after truth should so humble himself that even the dust could crush him. Only then, and not till then, will he have a glimpse of truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
A nonviolent person's life is always at the disposal of him who would take it.

Mahatma Gandhi
The saving of labour of the individual should be the object and honest humanitarian considerations, and not greed, the motive.
Mahatma Gandhi
Complete independence through truth and non-violence means the independence of every unit, be it the humblest of the nation, without distinction of race, colour or creed.
Mahatma Gandhi
When faced with a choice between violence and cowardice, always choose violence
Mahatma Gandhi
You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we are to make progress, we must not repeat history but make new history. We must add to inheritance left by our ancestors.
Mahatma Gandhi
High thinking is inconsistent with a complicated material life based on high speed and imposed on us by mammon worship.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have made the world's faith in God my own and as my faith is effaceable, I regard that faith as amounting to experience.
Mahatma Gandhi
