More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Man becomes great exactly in the degree in which he works for the welfare of his fellow-men.
Mahatma Gandhi
The inner voice is something which cannot be described in words. But sometimes we have a positive feeling that something in us prompts us to do a certain thing. The time when I learnt to recognise this voice was, I may say, the time when I started praying regularly.
Mahatma Gandhi
Many could forgo heavy meals, a full wardrobe, a fine house, etcetera. It is the ego they cannot forgo.
Mahatma Gandhi
To bear all kinds of tortures without a murmur of resentment is not possible for a human being without the strength that comes from God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though we may know Him by a thousand names, He is one and the same to us all.
Mahatma Gandhi
Mine is not a religion of the prison-house. It has room for the least among God's creation.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth should so humble that even dust could crush it.
Mahatma Gandhi
[It] is impossible for us to establish a living vital connection with the masses unless we will work for them, through them and in their midst, not as their patrons but as their servants.
Mahatma Gandhi
All good thoughts and ideas mean nothing without action
Mahatma Gandhi
No empire intoxicated with the red wine of power and the plunder of weaker races has yet lived long in this world.
Mahatma Gandhi
... there are chords in every human heart. If we only knew how to strike the right chord, we would bring out the music.
Mahatma Gandhi
Ethically they had arrived at the conclusion that man's supremacy over lower animals meant not that the former should prey upon the latter, but that the higher should protect the lower, and that there should be mutual aid between the two as between man and man. They had also brought out the truth that man eats not for enjoyment but to live.
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
I am not at all concerned with appearing to be consistent. In my pursuit after Truth I have discarded many ideas and learnt many new things.
Mahatma Gandhi
Just as a man would not cherish living in a body other than his own, so do nations not like to live under other nations, however noble and great the latter may be.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is goodness as well as greatness in simplicity, not in wealth.
Mahatma Gandhi
It was not as easy to commit suicide as to contemplate it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Live simply so that others may simply live.
Mahatma Gandhi
No nation keeps another in subjection without herself turning into a subject nation.
Mahatma Gandhi
That service is the noblest which is rendered for its own sake.
Mahatma Gandhi
