More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The best politics is right action.
Mahatma Gandhi
When every hope is gone, 'when helpers fail and comforts flee,' I find that help arrives somehow, from I know not where. Supplication, worship, prayer are no superstition they are acts more real than the acts of eating, drinking, sitting or walking. It is no exaggeration to say that they alone are real, all else is unreal.
Mahatma Gandhi
When I don't understand something, I reach up and hold God's hand. And we walk together in silence.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
I have in my life never been guilty of saying things I did not mean - my nature is to go straight to the heart and if often I fail in doing so for the time being, I know that Truth ultimately makes itself heard and felt, as it has often done in my experience.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man the law-giver will have to pay a dreadful penalty for the degradation he has imposed upon the so called weaker sex.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy disciplined and enlightened is the finest thing in the world. A democracy prejudiced, ignorant, superstitious, will land itself in chaos and may be self-destroyed.
Mahatma Gandhi
He who would in his own person test the fact of God's presence can do so by a living faith.
