More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Man has always desired power. Ownership of property gives this power. Man hankers also after posthumous fame based on power.

Mahatma Gandhi
Means to be means must always be within our reach, and so ahimsa is our supreme duty.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we could all give our own definitions of God, there would be as many definitions as there are men and women.

Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi has always his minimum and it is this minimum that is wanted in connection with this struggle.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even the atheists, who have pretended to disbelieve in God, have believed in Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Anger is the enemy of non-violence and pride is a monster that swallows it up.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you must kill English officials, why not kill me instead?
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
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.
