More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
A man of truth must ever be confident, if he has also equal need to be diffident.
Mahatma Gandhi
Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position.
Mahatma Gandhi
God forbid that India should ever take to industrialism after the manner of the west... keeping the world in chains. If [our nation] took to similar economic exploitation, it would strip the world bare like locusts.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every reform means awakening. Once truly awakened, the nation will not be satisfied with reform only in one department of life.
Mahatma Gandhi
A woman's intuition has often proved truer than a man's arrogant assumption of knowledge.
Mahatma Gandhi
I recognise no God except the God that is to be found in the hearts of the dumb millions.
Mahatma Gandhi
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
If the lambs of the world had been willingly led, they would have long ago saved themselves from the butcher's knife.
Mahatma Gandhi
A votary of ahimsa must cultivate the habit of unremitting toil, sleepless vigilance, ceaseless self-control.
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 unparalleled extravagance of English rule has demented the rajas and the maharajas who, unmindful of consequences, ape it and grind their subjects to dust.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-co-operation is a nation's determination to improve.
Mahatma Gandhi
The more I reflect and look back on the past, the more vividly do I feel my limitations.
Mahatma Gandhi
Khaddar was conceived with a much more ambitious object, that is, to make our villages starvation-proof.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence means an ocean of compassion. It means shedding from us every trace of ill will for others. It does not mean abjectness or timidity, or fleeing in fear. It means, on the contrary, firmness of mind and courage, a resolute spirit.
Mahatma Gandhi
What can be richer and more fruitful than a greater fulfillment of the vow of nonviolence in thought, word and deed or the spread of that spirit?
Mahatma Gandhi
We want to go in for suffering, and there may be torture. If we put the women in front the Government may hesitate to inflict on us all the penalty that they might otherwise inflict.
Mahatma Gandhi
To run away from danger, instead of facing it, is to deny one's faith in man and God, even one's own self. It were better for one to drown oneself than live to declare such bankruptcy of faith.
Mahatma Gandhi
Khadi to me is the symbol of unity of Indian humanity, of its economic freedom and equality and, therefore, ultimately, in the poetic expression of Jawaharlal Nehru, 'the livery of India's freedom'.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whilst power, superimposed, always needs the help of the police and the military, power generated from within should have little or no use of them.
Mahatma Gandhi
