More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
God is, even though the whole world deny him. Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self-sustained.
Mahatma Gandhi
I want freedom for the full expression of my personality.
Mahatma Gandhi
It's the action, not the fruit of the action, that's important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there'll be any fruit. But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every good movement passes through five stages, indifference, ridicule, abuse, repression, and respect.
Mahatma Gandhi

Time is wealth, and the Gita says the Great Annihilator annihilates those who waste time.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
I want co-operation between nations for the salvaging of civilization, but co-operation presupposes free nations worthy of co-operation.
Mahatma Gandhi
Strictly speaking, no activity and no industry is possible without a certain amount of violence, no matter how little. Even the very process of living is impossible without a certain amount of violence. What we have to do is to minimize it to the greatest extent possible.
Mahatma Gandhi
Violence can only be effectively met by nonviolence. This is an old established truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
