More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
If you think the world is all wrong, remember that it contains people like you.
Mahatma Gandhi
My own opinion is that just as fundamentally man and woman are one, their problems must be one in essence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let not the 12 million Negroes be ashamed of the fact that they are the grandchildren of slaves. There is dishonor in being slave-owners.
Mahatma Gandhi
Exploitation and domination of one nation over another can have no place in a world striving to put an end to all war.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cowardice is incompatible with divine wisdom.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let me say that God will send me the plan when He gives the word as He has done before now.
Mahatma Gandhi
Purity of personal life is the one indispensable condition for building up a sound education.
Mahatma Gandhi
I regard the constituent assembly as the substitute ofsatyagraha. It is constructive satyagraha.
Mahatma Gandhi
God does not punish directly. His ways are inscrutable.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Even a little untruth destroys a man, as a drop of poison ruins milk.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have no other wish in this world but to find light and joy and peace through Hinduism.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even as satyagraha is a weapon unique of its kind and not one of the ordinary weapons used by people, so is Khadi, a unique article of commerce which will not, cannot, succeed on terms common to other articles.
Mahatma Gandhi
Morality is the basis of things and truth is the substance of all morality.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violent resistance implies the very opposite of weakness. Defiance combined with non-retaliatory acceptance of repression from one's opponents is active, not passive. It requires strength, and there is nothing automatic or intuitive about the resoluteness required for using non-violent methods in political struggle and the quest for Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is no easy task to do away with a thing that is established. We, therefore, say that the non-beginning of a thing is supreme wisdom.
Mahatma Gandhi
Complete independence does not mean arrogant isolation or a superior disdain for all help.
Mahatma Gandhi
When anything assumes the strength of a creed, it becomes self-sustained and derives the needed support from within.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man can only conceive God within the limitation of his own mind.
Mahatma Gandhi
