Mahatma Gandhi
Civilization, in the real sense of the term, consists not in the multiplication, but in the deliberate and voluntary reduction of wants.

There is not a moment when I do not feel the presence of a Witness whose eye misses nothing and with whom I strive to keep in tune.
Mahatma Gandhi
Infinite Love is a weapon of matchless potency. It is the 'summum bonum' of life. It is an attribute of the brave, in fact it is their all. It does not come within the each of the coward. It is no wooden of lifeless dogma but a living and life-giving.
Mahatma Gandhi
The central fact of Hinduism is cow protection.
Mahatma Gandhi
My faith is brightest in the midst of impenetrable darkness.
Mahatma Gandhi
If love or non-violence be not the law of our being, the whole of my argument falls to pieces.
Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi has no other stay but God, and he who has any other stay or depends on any other help cannot offer satyagraha.
