More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
There are sufficient resources on this planet to answer the needs of all, but not enough to satisfy everyone's greed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Many could forgo heavy meals, a full wardrobe, a fine house, etcetera. It is the ego they cannot forgo.
Mahatma Gandhi
To forgive and accept injustice is cowardice.
Mahatma Gandhi
I must not serve a distant neighbour at the expense of the nearest.
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 highest truth needs no communicating, for it is by its very nature self-propelling. It radiates its influence silently as the rose its fragrance without the intervention of a medium.
Mahatma Gandhi
A man cannot serve God and Mammon, nor be temperate and furious at the same time.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every moment of my existence is dedicated to the winning of Swaraj by means of truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
How can one be compelled to accept slavery? I simply refuse to do the master's bidding. He may torture me, break my bones to atoms and even kill me. He will then have my dead body, not my obedience. Ultimately, therefore, it is I who am the victor and not he, for he has failed in getting me to do what he wanted done.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the best thing to blame ourselves when people cannot get on well with us. Boundless charity necessarily includes all or it ceases to be boundless. We must be strict with ourselves and lenient with our neighbors. For we know not their difficulties and what they overcome.
Mahatma Gandhi
I shall never know God if I do not wrestle with and against evil, even at the cost of life itself.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let your life be your message.
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
Civil disobedience is not only the natural right of a people, especially when they have no effective voice in their own Government, but that it is also a substitute for violence or armed rebellion.
Mahatma Gandhi
Purity of life is the highest and truest art.
Mahatma Gandhi
Social service that savours of patronage is not service.
Mahatma Gandhi
We do want to drive out the beast in man, but we do not want on that account to emasculate him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Throughout the history of mankind there have been murderers and tyrants and while it may seem momentarily that they have the upper hand, they have always fallen. Always.
Mahatma Gandhi
Rights that do not flow from duty well performed are not worth having.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism is a living organism. One and indivisible at the root, it has grown into a vast tree with innumerable branches. Knowledge is limitless and so also the application of truth. Everyday we add to our knowledge of the power of Atman (soul) and we shall keep on doing so.
Mahatma Gandhi
