More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violence is not a garment to be put on and off at will. Its seat is in the heart, and it must be an inseparable part of our being.
Mahatma Gandhi
I want freedom for the full expression of my personality.
Mahatma Gandhi
If non-violence is the Law of our being, the future is with Women.
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
Human language can but imperfectly describe God's ways.
Mahatma Gandhi
A general belief seems to prevail in the colony that the Indians are little better, if at all, than the savages or natives of Africa. Even the children are taught to believe in that manner, with the result that the Indian is being dragged down to the position of a raw Kaffir.
Mahatma Gandhi
If Hinduism teaches hatred of Islam or of non-Hindus, it is doomed to destruction.
Mahatma Gandhi
I felt that God could be realized only through service. And service for me was the service of India, because it came to me without my seeking, because I had an aptitude for it.
Mahatma Gandhi
For me, Rama and Rahim are one and the same deity.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is an unchangeable creed. It has to be pursued even in face of violence raging around you.
Mahatma Gandhi
One cannot reach Truth by untruthfulness. Truthful conduct alone can reach truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
I am just not thinking of India's deliverance. It will come, but will it be worth if England and France fall, or if they come out victorious over Germany ruined and humbled?
Mahatma Gandhi
Once one assumes an attitude of intolerance, there is no knowing where it will take one. Intolerance, someone has said, is violence to the intellect and hatred is violence to the heart.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy is not a state in which people act like sheep.
Mahatma Gandhi
Belief in non-violence is based on the assumption that human nature in the essence is one and therefore unfailingly responds to the advances of love.
Mahatma Gandhi
God rules even where Satan seems to hold sway, because the latter exists only on God's sufferance.
Mahatma Gandhi
Anger and intolerance are the twin enemies of correct understanding.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cow preservation is an article of faith in Hinduism.
Mahatma Gandhi
It's the action, not the fruit of the action, that's important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there'll be any fruit. But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the reformer who is anxious for the reform, and not society, from which he should expect nothing better than opposition, abhorrence and even mortal persecution.
Mahatma Gandhi
