More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Look at the sparrows they do not know what they will do in the next moment. Let us literally live from moment to moment.
Mahatma Gandhi
By education, I mean an all-round drawing of the best in child and man in body, mind and spirit.
Mahatma Gandhi
If our ahimsa is not of the brave but of the weak, and if it will bend the knee before himsa, Gandhism deserves to be destroyed.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not believe that the spiritual law works on a field of its own. On the contrary, it expresses itself only through the ordinary activities of life. It thus affects the economic, the social and the political fields.
Mahatma Gandhi
I should love to satisfy all, if I possibly can but in trying to satisfy all, I may be able to satisfy none. I have, therefore, arrived at the conclusion that the best course is to satisfy one’s own conscience and leave the world to form its own judgment, favorable or otherwise.
Mahatma Gandhi
When you want to find Truth as God, the only inevitable means is love, that is nonviolence.
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
Even a little of dharma saves one from many a pitfall.
Mahatma Gandhi
I claim to have been a lifelong and wholly disinterested friend of the British people.
Mahatma Gandhi
If India adopted the doctrine of love as an active part of her religion and introduced it in her politics. Swaraj would descend upon India from heaven. But I am painfully aware that that event is far off as yet.
Mahatma Gandhi
Good travels at a snail's pace. Those who want to do good are not selfish, they are not in a hurry, they know that to impregnate people with good requires a long time.
Mahatma Gandhi
I know that I can never be alone as God is there with me.
Mahatma Gandhi
A life of sacrifice is the pinnacle of art, and is full of true joy.
Mahatma Gandhi
The votary of ahimsa has only one fear, that is, of God.
Mahatma Gandhi
You assist an administration most effectively by obeying its orders and decrees. An evil administration never deserves such allegiance. Allegiance to it means partaking of the evil. A good man will therefore resist an evil system or administration with his whole soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our struggle consists in showing that our nonviolence is neither a cloak to hide our violence or hatred, nor a preparation for violence in the near or distant future.
Mahatma Gandhi
Armed conspiracies against something satanic is like matching Satans against Satan.
Mahatma Gandhi
Active nonviolence is necessary for those who will offer civil disobedience but the will and proper training are enough for the people to co-operate with those who are chosen for civil disobedience.
Mahatma Gandhi
Education without courage is like a wax statue - beautiful to look at but bound to melt at the first touch of a hot stuff.
Mahatma Gandhi
All religions enjoined worship of the One God who is all-pervasive. He is present even in a drop of water or in a tiny speck of dust.
