More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Violent means will give violent freedom.
Mahatma Gandhi
A bogus Congress register can never lead you to Swaraj any more than a paper boat can help you to sail across the Padma.
Mahatma Gandhi
Religion is the tie that binds one to one's Creator, and whilst the body perishes, as it has to, religion persists even after death.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let no one try to justify the glaring difference between the classes and the masses, the prince and the pauper, by saying that the former need more.
Mahatma Gandhi
We burn the evil men do with their mortal remains. We treasure the memory of the good they do, and distance magnifies it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our peaceful non-co-operation must be constructive, non-destructive. Poison should not emerge from the throes of love.
Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi has infinite patience, abundant faith in others, and ample hope.
Mahatma Gandhi
An awakened people who rely upon their nonviolent strength are independent in the face of any conceivable combination of the armed powers.
Mahatma Gandhi
You can judge a society by the way it treats it's animals
Mahatma Gandhi
A vow is a purely religious act which cannot be taken in a fit of passion. It can be taken only with a mind purified and composed and with God as witness.
Mahatma Gandhi
When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall... think of it, always.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let us, by praying, purify ourselves and we shall not only remove untouchability but shall also hasten the advent of Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
If blood be shed, let it be our own. Let us cultivate the calm courage to die without killing.
Mahatma Gandhi
The turning of the charkha in a lifeless way will be like the turning of the beads of the rosary with a wandering mind turned away from God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Violent nationalism, otherwise known as imperialism, is a curse.
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
There is no path to peace peace is the path.
Mahatma Gandhi
The essence of true religious teaching is that one should serve and befriend all.
Mahatma Gandhi
The whole of India was the home of every Indian who considered himself as one and behaved as such, no matter to what faith he belonged.
Mahatma Gandhi
Woman, I hold, is the personification of self-sacrifice, but unfortunately today she does not realize what a tremendous advantage she has over man. As Tolstoy used to say, they are laboring under the hypnotic influence of man. If they would realize the strength of non-violence they would not consent to be called the weaker sex.
