More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence being the mightiest force in the world and also the most elusive in its working, demands the greatest exercise of faith.
Mahatma Gandhi
Faith alone is the sun of life.
Mahatma Gandhi
One man cannot do right in one department of life whilst he is occupied in doing wrong in any other department. Life is one indivisible whole
Mahatma Gandhi
Useful manual labour, intelligently performed, is the means par excellence for developing the intellect.
Mahatma Gandhi
A certain degree of physical harmony and comfort is necessary, but above a certain level it becomes a hindrance instead of a help. Therefore the ideal of creating an unlimited number of wants and satisfying them seems to be a delusion and a snare.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cowardice is not a sign of belief in God.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have found by experience that man makes his plans to be upset by God, but, at the same time, where the ultimate goal is the search of truth, on matter how a man's plans are frustrated the issue is never injurious and often better than anticipated.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man lives freely only by his readiness to die, if need be, at the hands of his brother, never by killing him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism is a living organism. One and indivisible at the root, it has grown into a vast tree with innumerable branches. Knowledge is limitless and so also the application of truth. Everyday we add to our knowledge of the power of Atman (soul) and we shall keep on doing so.
Mahatma Gandhi
Death on the battlefield is welcome to a soldier.
Mahatma Gandhi
The external freedom won't be given to us but in the exact measure as we've known at a given moment, to developing our internal freedom.
Mahatma Gandhi
Why should men arrogate to themselves the right to regulate female purity?
Mahatma Gandhi
He who atones for sins never calculates he pours out the whole essence of his contrite heart.
Mahatma Gandhi
Violence always thrived on counter violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
If all Christians acted like Christ, the whole world would be Christian.
Mahatma Gandhi
I shall, of course, die with nonviolence on my lips.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our struggle does not end so long as there is a single human being considered untouchable on account of his birth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Buddha never rejected Hinduism, but he broadened its base. He gave it a new life and a new interpretation.
Mahatma Gandhi
God's ways are more than Man's arithmetic.
Mahatma Gandhi
Conquer the heart of the enemy with truth and love, not by violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
