More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
There are unjust laws as there are unjust men.
Mahatma Gandhi
One thing we have endeavoured to observe most scrupulously, namely, never to depart from the strictest facts and, in dealing with the difficult questions that have arisen during the year, we hope that we have used the utmost moderation possible under the circumstances.
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
Infinite Love is a weapon of matchless potency. It is the 'summum bonum' of life. It is an attribute of the brave, in fact it is their all. It does not come within the each of the coward. It is no wooden of lifeless dogma but a living and life-giving.
Mahatma Gandhi
In satyagraha, a courted imprisonment carries its own praise.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have repeatedly stated that satyagraha never fails and that one perfect satyagrahi is enough to vindicate Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth has drawn me into the field of politics and I can say without the slightest hesitation, and yet in all humility, that those who say that religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion means.
Mahatma Gandhi
I cannot give active support in the war effort without denying a life-time of practice.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth without humility would be an arrogant caricature.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cent percent swadeshi gives sufficient scope for the most insatiable ambition for service and a satisfaction of every kind of talent.
Mahatma Gandhi
I know that Buddhism is to Hinduism what Protestantism is to Roman Catholicism, only in a much stronger light, to a much greater degree.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man lives freely only by his readiness to die.
Mahatma Gandhi
I would like to say that that even the teachings of the Koran cannot be exempted from criticism.
Mahatma Gandhi
A nonviolent struggle necessarily involves construction on a small scale. It cannot therefore lead to tamas or darkness or inertia.
Mahatma Gandhi
I had learnt at the onset not to carry on public work with borrowed money.
Mahatma Gandhi
No religion which is narrow and which cannot satisfy the test of reason, will survive the coming reconstruction of society in which the values will have changed and character, not possession of wealth, title or birth, will be the test of merit.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not consider Hitler to be as bad as he is depicted. He is showing an ability which is amazing and he seems to be gaining his victories without much bloodshed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Self-defense...is the only honourable course where there is unreadiness for self-immolation.
Mahatma Gandhi
Disease increases in proportion to the increase in the number of doctors in a place.
Mahatma Gandhi
It amazes me to find an intelligent person who fights against something which he does not at all believe exists.
Mahatma Gandhi
