More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Everyone has faith in God though everyone does not know it. For everyone has faith in himself and that multiplied to the nth degree is God. The sum total of all that lives is God. We may not be God, but we are of God, even as a little drop of water is of the ocean.
Mahatma Gandhi
A good person will resist an evil system with his whole soul. Disobedience of the laws of an evil state is therefore a duty.
Mahatma Gandhi
In the Gita continuous concentration on God is the king of sacrifices.
Mahatma Gandhi
When a man wants to make up with his Maker, he does not consult a third party.
Mahatma Gandhi
Yajna is not yajna if one feels it to be burdensome or annoying.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whatever may be true of the other modes of warfare, insatyagraha it has been held that the causes for failure are to be sought within.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though we may know Him by a thousand names, He is one and the same to us all.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe that the sum total of the energy of mankind is not to bring us down but to lift us up, and that is the result of the definite, if unconscious, working of the law of love. The fact that mankind persists shows that the cohesive force is greater than the disruptive force, centripetal force greater than centrifugal.
Mahatma Gandhi
The music of the spinning wheel will be as balm to your soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
Personally I crave not for 'independence', which I do not understand, but I long for freedom from the English yoke.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy is a great institution and, therefore, it is liable to be greatly abused.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every reform means awakening. Once truly awakened, the nation will not be satisfied with reform only in one department of life.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civilization, in the real sense of the term, consists not in the multiplication, but in the deliberate and voluntary reduction of wants.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is man's social nature which distinguishes him from the brute creation. If it is his privilege to be independent, it is equally his duty to be inter-dependent. Only an arrogant man will claim to be independent of everybody else and be self-contained.
Mahatma Gandhi
Great causes cannot be served by intellectual equipment alone, they call for spiritual effort of soul-force.
Mahatma Gandhi
There are times when you have to obey a call which is the highest of all, i.e. the voice of conscience even though such obedience may cost many a bitter tear, and even more, separation from friends, from family, from the state, to which you may belong, from all that you have held as dear as life itself. For this obedience is the law of our being.
Mahatma Gandhi
Not those who shout 'satyagraha', 'satyagraha' will do satyagraha, but those who will work for it.
Mahatma Gandhi
I understand democracy as something that gives the weak the same chance as the strong.
Mahatma Gandhi
The science of nonviolence can alone lead one to pure democracy.
Mahatma Gandhi
My religion is a matter solely between my Maker and myself.
Mahatma Gandhi
