More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
At the moment the British Common-wealth is a Commonwealth of White nation.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is for you and me to show that no vice is inherent in man.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism is like the Ganga, pure and unsullied at its source but taking in its course the impurities in the way. Even like the Ganga it is beneficent in its total effect. It takes a provincial form in every province, but the inner substance is retained everywhere.
Mahatma Gandhi
God's ways are more than Man's arithmetic.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let us give today first the vital things of life and all the grace and ornaments of life will follow.
Mahatma Gandhi
Of all the black crimes that humanity is committing against the great Creation, vivisection is the blackest.
Mahatma Gandhi
The sole aim of journalism should be service.
Mahatma Gandhi
They may torture my body, break my bones, even kill me. Then they will have my dead body, but not my obedience.
Mahatma Gandhi
True religion being the greatest thing in life and in the world, has been exploited the most.
Mahatma Gandhi
But you can wake a man only if he is really asleep. No effort that you make will produce any effect upon him if he is merely pretending sleep.
Mahatma Gandhi
We want to go in for suffering, and there may be torture. If we put the women in front the Government may hesitate to inflict on us all the penalty that they might otherwise inflict.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not consider Hitler to be as bad as he is depicted. He is showing an ability which is amazing and he seems to be gaining his victories without much bloodshed.
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 want India to come into her own and that state cannot be better defined by any single word than Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
Basic education links the children, whether of the cities or the villages, to all that is best and lasting in India.
Mahatma Gandhi
If blood be shed, let it be our own. Let us cultivate the calm courage to die without killing.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is an ever-growing belief with me that truth cannot be found by violent means.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy is not a state in which people act like sheep.
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
It is the duty of a non-co-operator to preach disaffection towards the existing order of things. Non-co-operators are but giving disciplined expression to a nation's outraged feelings.
Mahatma Gandhi
