More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism has made marvelous discoveries in things of religion, of the spirit, of the soul. We have no eye for these great and fine discoveries. We are dazzled by the material progress that Western science has made. Ancient India has survived because Hinduism was not developed along material but spiritual lines.
Mahatma Gandhi
High thinking is inconsistent with a complicated material life based on high speed and imposed on us by mammon worship.
Mahatma Gandhi
You may pluck out my eyes, but that cannot kill me. You may chop off my nose, but that will not kill me. But blast my belief in God, and I am dead.
Mahatma Gandhi
We don't use guns because we don't have guns
Mahatma Gandhi
The art that is in the machine-made article, appeals only to the eye the art in Khadi appeals first to the heart and then to the eye.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
There is no yajna (sacrifice) greater than spinning calculated to bring peace to the troubled spirit, to soothe the distracted student's mind, to spiritualize his life.
Mahatma Gandhi
The mantram becomes one's staff of life and carries one through every ordeal. Each repetition has a new meaning, carrying you nearer and nearer to God.
Mahatma Gandhi
All the religions of the world, while they may differ in other respects, unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
The strength of the soul can defy a whole world in arms against it.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not consider Hitler to be as bad as he is depicted. He is showing an ability which is amazing and he seems to be gaining his victories without much bloodshed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whilst the Bihar calamity damages the body, the calamity brought about by untouchability corrodes the very soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
