More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The need of the moment is not one religion, but mutual respect and tolerance of the devotees of the different religions.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
Mahatma Gandhi
... the true function of a lawyer was to unite parties driven asunder.
Mahatma Gandhi
To deprive a man of his natural liberty and to deny to him the ordinary amenities of life is worse then starving the body it is starvation of the soul, the dweller in the body.
Mahatma Gandhi
Concentrate on your task.
Mahatma Gandhi
History is a record of perpetual wars, but we are now trying to make new history.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have found that life persists in the midst of destruction and, therefore, there must be a higher law than that of destruction. Only under that law would a well-ordered society be intelligible and life worth living.
Mahatma Gandhi
We may not be God, but we are of God, even as a little drop of water is of the ocean.
Mahatma Gandhi
A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.
Mahatma Gandhi
Religious truth, or for that matter any truth, requires a calm and meditative atmosphere for its percolation.
Mahatma Gandhi
You never know where your actions will lead to. But if you don't do anything they will lead you nowhere.
Mahatma Gandhi
I shall content myself with merely declaring my firm conviction that, for the seeker who would live in fear of God and who would see Him face to face, restraint in diet both as to quantity and quality is as essential as restraint in thought and speech.
Mahatma Gandhi
I came alone in this world, I have walked alone in the valley of the shadow of death, and I shall quit alone when the time comes.
Mahatma Gandhi
Power is of two kinds: one is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love.
Mahatma Gandhi
The only virtue I want to claim is truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
When a man wants to make up with his Maker, he does not consult a third party.
Mahatma Gandhi
Proved right should be capable of being vindicated by right means as against the rude i.e. sanguinary means. Man may and should shed his own blood for establishing what he considers to be his right. He may not shed the blood of his opponent who disputes his 'right'.
Mahatma Gandhi
God took and needed no personal service. He served His creatures without demanding any service for Himself in return.
Mahatma Gandhi
The spinning wheel is itself an exquisite piece of machinery. My head daily bows in reverence to its unknown inventor.
Mahatma Gandhi
The message of the Gita is to be found in the second chapter of the Gita where Lord Krishna speaks of the balanced state of mind, of mental equipoise.
Mahatma Gandhi
