More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
If what passed as nonviolence does not enable people to protect the honour of women, or if it does not enable women to protect their own honour, it is not nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is not a weapon of the weak. It is a weapon of the strongest and bravest.
Mahatma Gandhi
He who is ever brooding over result often loses nerve in the performance of his duty.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Law and the Lawgiver are one.
Mahatma Gandhi
Never own defeat in a sacred cause and make up your minds henceforth that you will be pure and that you will find a response from God.
Mahatma Gandhi
No power on earth can resist the lovers of liberty who are ready not to kill opponents, but be killed by them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Only an arrogant man will claim to be independent of everybody else and be self-contained.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have no other wish in this world but to find light and joy and peace through Hinduism.
Mahatma Gandhi
The inner voice is something which cannot be described in words. But sometimes we have a positive feeling that something in us prompts us to do a certain thing. The time when I learnt to recognise this voice was, I may say, the time when I started praying regularly.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, rules us we would have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that the so-called civilised men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis of society was violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Free, open love I have looked upon as dog's love. Secret love is, besides, cowardly.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our peaceful non-co-operation must be constructive, non-destructive. Poison should not emerge from the throes of love.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not believe that the spiritual law works on a field of its own. On the contrary, it expresses itself only through the ordinary activities of life. It thus affects the economic, the social and the political fields.
Mahatma Gandhi
India is less manly under the British rule than she ever was before.
Mahatma Gandhi
I regard untouchability as such a grave sin as to warrant divine chastisement.
Mahatma Gandhi
Human dignity demands courage to defend oneself.
Mahatma Gandhi
What kind of victory is it when someone is left defeated?
Mahatma Gandhi
There is always enough for the needy, there is never enough for the greedy.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is easy enough to say, I do not believe in God. For God permits all things to be said of Him with impunity. he looks at our acts. And any breach of His Law carries with it, not its vindictive, but it purifying, compelling punishment.
Mahatma Gandhi
[I]t seems to me as clear as daylight that abortion would be a crime.
Mahatma Gandhi
