More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Unexampled bravery, born of nonviolence, coupled with strict honesty shown by a fair number of Muslims, is sure to infect the whole of India.
Mahatma Gandhi
Fearlessness presupposes calmness and peace of mind.
Mahatma Gandhi
Unless discipline is rooted in nonviolence, it might prove to be a source of infinite mischief.
Mahatma Gandhi
Before [Hindus and Moslems] dare think of freedom, they must be brave enough to love one another, to tolerate one another's religion, even prejudices and superstitions, and to trust one another. This requires faith in oneself.
Mahatma Gandhi
Lovers of Swaraj cannot rest till a solution is found which would allay Mussalman apprehensions and yet not endanger Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
To yield to the threat or actual use of violence is a surrender of one's self respect and religious conviction.
Mahatma Gandhi
A smattering of English is worse than useless it is an unnecessary tax on our women.
Mahatma Gandhi
Where there is truth, there also is knowledge which is true.
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
No one can dominate a population of 80,000,000.
Mahatma Gandhi
Many people, especially ignorant people, want to punish you for speaking the truth, for being correct, for being you. Never apologize for being correct, or for being years ahead of your time. If you’re right and you know it, speak your mind. Speak your mind. Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is still the truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
The idol in the temple is not God. But since God resides in every atom, He resides in that idol too.
Mahatma Gandhi
Far better than emasculation would be the bravery of those who use physical force. Far better than cowardice would be meeting one's death fighting.
Mahatma Gandhi
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
Mahatma Gandhi
The richest grace of ahimsa will descend easily upon the owner of hard discipline.
Mahatma Gandhi
Service which is rendered without joy helps neither the servant nor the served. But all other pleasures and possessions pale into nothingness before service which is rendered in a spirit of joy.
Mahatma Gandhi
I want freedom for the full expression of my personality.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is beneath human dignity to lose one's individuality and become a mere cog in the machine.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth and nonviolence are perhaps the activest forces you have in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
The sky may be overcast today with clouds, but a fervent prayer to God is enough to dispel them.
Mahatma Gandhi
