More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Civilization is not an incurable disease, but it should never be forgotten that the English people are at present afflicted by it.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe in the capacity of India to offer nonviolent battle to the English rulers.
Mahatma Gandhi
The whole world is in the throes of a new birth. Anything done for a temporary gain would be tantamount to an abortion.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is an active force of the highest order. It is soul force or the power of the godhead within us.
Mahatma Gandhi
We often confuse spiritual knowledge with spiritual attainment. Spirituality is not a matter of knowing scriptures and engaging in philosophical discussions. It is a matter of heart culture, of unmeasurable strength.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whatever can be useful to those starving millions is beautiful to my mind.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy is not a state in which people act like sheep.
Mahatma Gandhi
You cannot stop big wars if you carry on little wars yourselves.
Mahatma Gandhi
I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.
Mahatma Gandhi
I regard the constituent assembly as the substitute ofsatyagraha. It is constructive satyagraha.
Mahatma Gandhi
I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing will demoralize the nation so much as that we should learn to despise labour.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is very significant that some of the most thoughtful and cultured men are partisans of a pure vegetable diet
Mahatma Gandhi
There is not a moment when I do not feel the presence of a Witness whose eye misses nothing and with whom I strive to keep in tune.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is a mark of wisdom not to kick away the very step from which we have risen higher. The removal of one step from a staircase brings down the whole of it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Half-a-dozen or twenty cities of India alone working together cannot bring Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
Terrorism and deception are weapons not of the strong, but of the weak.
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
Man lives freely only by his readiness to die, if need be, at the hands of his brother, never by killing him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism is a relentless pursuit of Truth. Truth is God and if today it has become moribund, inactive, irresponsive to growth, it is because we are fatigued and as soon as the fatigue is over, Hinduism will burst upon the world with a brilliance perhaps unknown before.
