More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
At the moment the British Common-wealth is a Commonwealth of White nation.
Mahatma Gandhi
I worship God as Truth only. I have not yet found Him, but I am seeking after Him. I am prepared to sacrifice the things dearest to me in pursuit of this quest. Even if the sacrifice demanded my very life, I hope I may be prepared to give it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Through the deliverance of India, I seek to deliver the so-called weaker races of the earth from the crushing heels of Western exploitation in which England is the greatest partner.
Mahatma Gandhi
Mortification of the flesh has been held all the world over as a condition of spiritual progress.
Mahatma Gandhi
True nonviolence is mightier than the mightiest violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I had to face only the Sermon on the Mount and my own interpretation of it, I should not hesitate to say, 'O yes, I am a Christian.'
Mahatma Gandhi
He who atones for sins never calculates he pours out the whole essence of his contrite heart.
Mahatma Gandhi
A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man must choose either of the two courses, the upward or the downward but as he has the brute in him, he will more easily choose the downward course than the upward, especially when the downward course is presented to him in a beautiful garb. Man easily capitulates when sin is presented in the garb of virtue.
Mahatma Gandhi
I would like to say that that even the teachings of the Koran cannot be exempted from criticism.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have not hesitated to call the system of Government under which we are labouring 'satanic' and I withdraw naught out of it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Could there be a greater proof of our cowardice than fighting amongst ourselves?
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-co-operation intended to pave the way to real honourable and voluntary co-operation based on mutual respect and trust.
Mahatma Gandhi
The only tyrant I accept in this world is the still voice within.
Mahatma Gandhi
Ahimsa is no mere theory with me, but it is a fact of life based on extensive experience.
Mahatma Gandhi
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. For the least sin, it wouldn't take us longTo get so we had no one left to live with.For to be social is to be forgiving.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism is a relentless pursuit of Truth. Truth is God and if today it has become moribund, inactive, irresponsive to growth, it is because we are fatigued and as soon as the fatigue is over, Hinduism will burst upon the world with a brilliance perhaps unknown before.
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
Confession of errors is like a broom which sweeps away the dirt and leaves the surface brighter and clearer. I feel stronger for confession.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy disciplined and enlightened is the finest thing in the world. A democracy prejudiced, ignorant, superstitious, will land itself in chaos and may be self-destroyed.
