More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The socialistic conception of the West was born in an environment reeking with violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even as wisdom often comes from the mouths of babes, so does it often come from the mouths of old people. The golden rule is to test everything in the light of reason and experience, no matter from where it comes.
Mahatma Gandhi
The essence of true religious teaching is that one should serve and befriend all.
Mahatma Gandhi
For satyagraha and its offshoots, non-co-operation and civil resistance, are nothing but new names for the law of suffering.
Mahatma Gandhi
The call of the spinning wheel is the noblest of all. Because it is the call of love. And love is Swaraj.

Mahatma Gandhi
I swear by swadeshi as it affords occasion for ample exercise of all our faculties and it tests every one of the millions of men and women, young and old.
Mahatma Gandhi
I am conscious of my own limitations. That consciousness is my only strength.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is not a mistake to commit a mistake, for no one commits a mistake knowing it to be one. But it is a mistake not to correct the mistake after knowing it to be one. If you are afraid of committing a mistake, you are afraid of doing anything at all. You will correct your mistakes whenever you find them.
Mahatma Gandhi
A genuine satyagraha should never excite contempt in the opponent even when it fails to command regard or respect.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-co-operation is not a movement of drag, bluster or bluff.
Mahatma Gandhi
Perfection is only an ideal for man it cannot be attained, for man is made imperfect.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even a believer in nonviolence has to say between two combatants which is less bad or whose cause is just.
Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi has no other stay but God, and he who has any other stay or depends on any other help cannot offer satyagraha.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is no beauty in the finest cloth if it makes hunger and unhappiness.
Mahatma Gandhi
I will not have the power of nonviolence to be underestimated in order to cover my limitations or weaknesses.
Mahatma Gandhi
A dissolute character is more dissolute in thought than in deed. And the same is true of violence. Our violence in word and deed is but a feeble echo of the surging violence of thought in us.
Mahatma Gandhi
The fragrance of nonviolence was never sweeter than it was today amidst the stink of violence of the most cowardly type that was being displayed in the cities of India.
Mahatma Gandhi
The world is big enough to satisfy everyones needs, but will always be too small to satisfy everyones greed
Mahatma Gandhi
At times, non-co-operation becomes as much a duty as co-operation.
Mahatma Gandhi
