More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
My optimism rests on my belief in the infinite possibilities of the individual to develop nonviolence. . . . In a gentle way you can shake the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence means an ocean of compassion. It means shedding from us every trace of ill will for others. It does not mean abjectness or timidity, or fleeing in fear. It means, on the contrary, firmness of mind and courage, a resolute spirit.
Mahatma Gandhi
Indeed the very word, nonviolence, a negative word, means that it is an effort to abandon the violence that is inevitable in life.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe that the yarn we spin is capable of mending the broken warp and woof of our life!
Mahatma Gandhi
Was it that you wanted to pull my leg by transporting me to the frozen Himalayan heights of 'mahatmaship' and claiming for yourself absolution from having to follow my precepts?
Mahatma Gandhi
There are many causes I would die for. There is not a single cause I would kill for.
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
One thing we have endeavoured to observe most scrupulously, namely, never to depart from the strictest facts and, in dealing with the difficult questions that have arisen during the year, we hope that we have used the utmost moderation possible under the circumstances.
Mahatma Gandhi
Individual liberty is allowed to man only to a certain extent. He cannot forget that he is a social being and his individual liberty has to be curtailed at every step.
Mahatma Gandhi
My shyness has been in reality my shield and buckler. It has allowed me to grow. It has helped me in my discernment of truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
All great religions have rightly regarded kama as the arch-enemy of man, anger or hatred coming only in the second place.
Mahatma Gandhi
I shall die, but I will not kill.
Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi exhausts all other means before he resorts to satyagraha.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you do nothing there will be no results
Mahatma Gandhi
Remember there is always a limit to self-indulgence, none to restraint... Civilization , in the real sense of the term, consists not in the multiplication but in the deliberate and voluntary restriction of wants. This alone promotes real happiness and contentment , and increases the capacity for service .
Mahatma Gandhi
To change one's religion under the threat of force is no conversion but rather cowardice.
Mahatma Gandhi
The movement of nonviolent non-co-operation has nothing in common with the historical struggles for freedom in the West.
Mahatma Gandhi
When freedom is in jeopardy, non-co-operation may be a duty and prison may be a palace.
Mahatma Gandhi
Out of the performance of duties flow rights, and those that knew and performed their duties came naturally by their rights.
Mahatma Gandhi
All the other industries will receive warmth and sustenance from khadi industry.
Mahatma Gandhi
