If there ever is to be a republic of every village in India, then I claim verity for my picture in which the last is equal to the first or, in other words, no one is to be the first and none the last.

More quotes by 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
Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position.
Mahatma Gandhi
Power is of two kinds: one is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love.
Mahatma Gandhi
I consider Western Christianity in its practical working a negation of Christ's Christianity.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Mass civil disobedience was for the attainment of independence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man's happiness really lies in contentment.
Mahatma Gandhi
Was it that you wanted to pull my leg by transporting me to the frozen Himalayan heights of 'mahatmaship' and claiming for yourself absolution from having to follow my precepts?
Mahatma Gandhi
To conceal ignorance is to increase it. An honest confession of it, however, gives ground for the hope that it will diminish some day or the other.
Mahatma Gandhi
None, while in flesh, can be entirely free from himsa, because one never completely renounces the will to live.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
A vow is fixed and unalterable determination to do a thing, when such a determination is related to something noble which can only uplift the man who makes the resolve.
Mahatma Gandhi
It was not as easy to commit suicide as to contemplate it.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have discovered that man is superior to the system he propounds.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the function of God Rama to destroy evil, wherever it occurs and it is equally the function of God Rama to give to his devotees like Bibhishana a free charter of irrevocable self-government.
Mahatma Gandhi
I'm a lover of my own liberty, and so I would do nothing to restrict yours.
Mahatma Gandhi
Mine is not a religion of the prison-house. It has room for the least among God's creation.
Mahatma Gandhi
We may stumble and fall but shall rise again it should be enough if we did not run away from the battle.
Mahatma Gandhi
Christianity in India is inextricably mixed up for the last hundred and fifty years with the British rule.
Mahatma Gandhi
