More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The spirit of democracy... requires change of the heart... requires the inculcation of the spirit of brotherhood.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
A heart-felt prayer is not recitation with the lips. It is a yearning from within which expresses itself in every word, every act, nay every thought of people.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolent non-co-operation with evil means co-operation with all that is good.

Mahatma Gandhi
Half-a-dozen or twenty cities of India alone working together cannot bring Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
Legal imposition avoids the necessity of honour or good faith.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though we may know Him by a thousand names, He is one and the same to us all.
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
Nirvana is the utter extinction of all that is base in us, all that is vicious in us. Nirvana is not like the black, dead peace of the grave, but the living peace, the living happiness of a soul which is conscious of itself and conscious of having found its own abode in the heart of the Eternal.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not want to live at the cost of the life even of a snake. I should let him bite me to death rather than kill him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Economic equality is the master-key to nonviolent independence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Do not crave to know the views of others, nor base your intent thereon. To think independently for yourself is a sign of fearlessness.
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
