More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The greatness of the human being is not in the reincarnation of the world but in the reincarnation of ourselves.
Mahatma Gandhi
Of all the superstitions that affect India, none is so great as that a knowledge of the English language is necessary for imbibing ideas of liberty and developing accuracy to thought.
Mahatma Gandhi
Spiritually, compulsory disarmament has made us unmanly, and the presence of an alien army of occupation, employed with deadly effect to crush in us the spirit of resistance, has made us think we cannot look after ourselves or put up a defense against foreign aggression, or even defend our homes and families.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though I cannot claim to be a Christian in the sectarian sense, the example of Jesus suffering is a factor in the composition of my undying faith in non-violence which rules all my actions, worldly and temporal.
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
Vehement writing, even if it is charged with truth, is no answer to violent action.
Mahatma Gandhi
My religion and my patriotism derived from my religion, embrace all life.
Mahatma Gandhi
Is a civilization worth the name, which requires, for its existence the very doubtful prop of a racial legislation and a lynch law?
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
To a true artist only that face is beautiful which, quite apart from its exterior, shines with the truth within the soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
The votary of ahimsa has only one fear, that is, of God.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you love peace, then hate injustice, hate tyranny, hate greed � but hate these things in yourself, not in another.
Mahatma Gandhi
Many persons claiming different faiths make us one and an indivisible nation. All these have an equal claim to be the nationals of India.
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
I do not believe that the spiritual law works on a field of its own. On the contrary, it expresses itself only through the ordinary activities of life. It thus affects the economic, the social and the political fields.
Mahatma Gandhi
The cow to me is a sermon on pity.
Mahatma Gandhi
My religion forbids me to belittle or disregard other cultures, as it insists, under pain of civil suicide, upon imbibing and living my own.
Mahatma Gandhi
The essence of true religious teaching is that one should serve and befriend all.
Mahatma Gandhi
Urbanization in India is a slow but sure death for her villages and villagers.
Mahatma Gandhi
Music has given me peace. I can remember occasions when music instantly tranquillized my mind, when I was greatly agitated over something. Music has helped me to overcome anger.
Mahatma Gandhi
