More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
It would be a sad day for India if it has to inherit the English scale and the English tastes so utterly unsuitable to the Indian environment.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe in advaita, I believe in the essential unity of man and for that matter of all that lives.
Mahatma Gandhi
The greater our innocence, the greater our strength and the swifter our victory
Mahatma Gandhi
If I were asked to define the Hindu creed, I should simply say: search after Truth through non-violent means. Hinduism is a relentless pursuit after truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
The world is weary of hate. We see the fatigue overcoming the Western nations.
Mahatma Gandhi
Self-sacrifice of one innocent man is a million times more potent than the sacrifice of a million men who die in the act of killing others.
Mahatma Gandhi
I still somehow or other fancy that my philosophy represents the true meaning of the teaching of the Gita.
Mahatma Gandhi
The function of Nayee-Talim is not to teach an occupation, but through it to develop the whole man.
Mahatma Gandhi
Human life is a series of compromises, and it is not always easy to achieve in practice what one has found to be true in theory.
Mahatma Gandhi
Enter with me into the sufferings, not only of the people of India but of the whole world. Nonviolence is a more active and real fight against wickedness than retaliation whose very nature is to increase wickedness. It is not a weapon of the weak. It is a weapon of the strongest and bravest.
Mahatma Gandhi
Simplicity is the essence of universality.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violence is not a garment to be put on and off at will. Its seat is in the heart, and it must be an inseparable part of our being.
Mahatma Gandhi
Adversity is the mother of progress.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let no one try to justify the glaring difference between the classes and the masses, the prince and the pauper, by saying that the former need more.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hatred is never overcome by hatred but by love.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is a mark of wisdom not to kick away the very step from which we have risen higher. The removal of one step from a staircase brings down the whole of it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Destruction is not the law of humans. Man lives freely only by his readiness to die, if need be, at the hands of his brother, never by killing him. Every murder or other injury, no matter for what cause, committed or inflicted on another is a crime against humanity.
Mahatma Gandhi
Service which is rendered without joy helps neither the servant nor the served.
Mahatma Gandhi
To give one's heart is to give all.
Mahatma Gandhi
My knowledge of the letter of the Shastras is better, but of true religion they are able to give me but little.
