More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
To my mind, Swaraj based on nonviolence is the fulfillment of the constructive programme.
Mahatma Gandhi
No one can dominate a population of 80,000,000.
Mahatma Gandhi
If everyone will try to understand the core of his own religion and adhere to it, and will not allow false teachers to dictate to him, there will be no room left for quarrelling.
Mahatma Gandhi
What is faith if it is not translated into action?
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, rules us we would have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that the so-called civilised men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis of society was violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
For me the only certain means of knowing God is nonviolence, ahimsa, love.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civil disobedience is not only the natural right of a people, especially when they have no effective voice in their own Government, but that it is also a substitute for violence or armed rebellion.
Mahatma Gandhi
God will cease to be God, if he brought into being a single person with the hall-mark of inferiority.
Mahatma Gandhi
Diversity there certainly is in the world, but it means neither inequality nor untouchability.
Mahatma Gandhi
A great man may not do great things but they do ordinary things greatly.
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
When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have learnt through bitter experience the one supreme lesson to conserve my anger, and as heat conserved is transmuted into energy, even so our anger controlled can be transmuted into a power which can move the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have repeatedly stated that satyagraha never fails and that one perfect satyagrahi is enough to vindicate Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
I know that Buddhism is to Hinduism what Protestantism is to Roman Catholicism, only in a much stronger light, to a much greater degree.
Mahatma Gandhi
The primary object of non-co-operation is nowhere stated to be paralysis of the Government. The primary object is self-purification.
Mahatma Gandhi
Golden fetters are no less galling to a self-respecting man that iron ones the sting lies in the fetters, not in the metal.
Mahatma Gandhi
If Euclid's point, though incapable of being drawn by any human agency, has an imperishable value, my picture has its own for mankind to live.
Mahatma Gandhi
What kind of victory is it when someone is left defeated?
Mahatma Gandhi
The right to err, which means the freedom to try experiments, is the universal condition of all progress.
Mahatma Gandhi
