More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Jail-going is only the beginning, not the end of satyagraha. The acme of satyagraha for us would be to lay down our lives for the defence of India's just cause.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not wish disaster to British arms.
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
Do you think I am superstitious? I am a super-atheist.
Mahatma Gandhi
Without action, you aren't going anywhere.
Mahatma Gandhi
Live every day like it is your last and learn everyday like you will live forever
Mahatma Gandhi
The golden rule is to act fearlessly upon what one believes to be right.
Mahatma Gandhi
Golden fetters are no less galling to a self-respecting man that iron ones the sting lies in the fetters, not in the metal.
Mahatma Gandhi
Men should do their actual living and working in communities small enough to permit of genuine self-government and the assumption of personal responsibilities, federated into larger units in such a way that the temptation to abuse great power should not arise.
Mahatma Gandhi
What is imprisonment to the man who is fearless of death itself?
Mahatma Gandhi
The spinning wheel is itself an exquisite piece of machinery. My head daily bows in reverence to its unknown inventor.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, rules us we would have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that the so-called civilised men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis of society was violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Machinery is the chief symbol of modern civilization it represents a great sin.
Mahatma Gandhi
What we can do, we will try to do.
Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi cannot go to law for a personal wrong.
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
Bullies are always to be found where there are cowards.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we want to cultivate a true spirit of democracy we cannot afford to be intolerant. Intolerance betrays want of faith in one's cause.
Mahatma Gandhi
Power is of two kinds: one is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love.
Mahatma Gandhi
We often confuse spiritual knowledge with spiritual attainment. Spirituality is not a matter of knowing scriptures and engaging in philosophical discussions. It is a matter of heart culture, of unmeasurable strength.
Mahatma Gandhi
