More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
If I seem to take part in politics, it is only because politics encircles us today like the coil of a snake from which one cannot get out, no matter how much one tries. I wish therefore to wrestle with the snake.
Mahatma Gandhi
A national spirit is necessary for national existence. A flag is a material aid to the development of such a spirit.
Mahatma Gandhi
My shyness has been in reality my shield and buckler. It has allowed me to grow. It has helped me in my discernment of truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
God's ways are more than Man's arithmetic.
Mahatma Gandhi
I claim to have been a lifelong and wholly disinterested friend of the British people.
Mahatma Gandhi
The secret of a happy life lies in renunciation. Renunciation is life.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you love peace, then hate injustice, hate tyranny, hate greed � but hate these things in yourself, not in another.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hitler killed five million Jews. It is the greatest crime of our time. But the Jews should have offered themselves to the butcher's knife. They should have thrown themselves into the sea from cliffs. As it is, they succumbed anyway in their millions.
Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi should have a living faith in God.
Mahatma Gandhi
In this day of wonders no one will say that a thing or an idea is worthless because it is new. To say it is impossible because it is difficult is again not in consonance with the spirit of the age. Things undreamt of are daily being seen, the impossible is ever becoming possible.
Mahatma Gandhi
A slave- holder, who has decided to abolish slavery, does not consult his slaves whether they desire freedom or not.
Mahatma Gandhi
Just as there are signs by which you can recognize violence with the naked eye, so is the spinning wheel to me a decisive sign of nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
The privilege of resisting or disobeying a particular law or order accrues only to him who gives willing and unswerving obedience to the laws laid down for him.
Mahatma Gandhi
I understand democracy as something that gives the weak the same chance as the strong.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let no one charge me with ever having abused or encouraged weakness or surrendered on matters of principle. But I have said, as I say again, that every trifle must not be dignified into a principle.
Mahatma Gandhi
The safest rule of conduct is to claim kinship when we want to do service and not to insist on kinship when we want to assert a right.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cowardice is impotence worse than violence. The coward desires revenge but being afraid to die, he looks to others, maybe to the government of the day, to do the work of defense for him. A coward is less than a man. He does not deserve to be a member of a society of men and women.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whilst power, superimposed, always needs the help of the police and the military, power generated from within should have little or no use of them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Faith... must be enforced by reason... when faith becomes blind it dies.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every reform means awakening. Once truly awakened, the nation will not be satisfied with reform only in one department of life.
Mahatma Gandhi
