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 have described Swaraj as Ramarajya and Ramarajya is an impossibility unless we have thousands of Sitas.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I arrogate to myself the exclusive title of being in the right, I usurp the function of the Deity.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
The greater our innocence, the greater our strength and the swifter our victory

Mahatma Gandhi
God the Compassionate and the Merciful, Tolerance incarnate, allows Mammon to have his nine days' wonder.
Mahatma Gandhi
A heart-felt prayer is not recitation with the lips. It is a yearning from within which expresses itself in every word, every act, nay every thought of people.
Mahatma Gandhi
God tries his votaries through and through but never beyond endurance. He gives them strength enough to go through the ordeal he prescribes for them.
Mahatma Gandhi
To a true artist only that face is beautiful which, quite apart from its exterior, shines with the truth within the soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
I cannot in all conscience agree to anyone being sent to the gallows. God alone can take life because He alone gives it . . .
Mahatma Gandhi
Buddha renounced every worldly happiness because he wanted to share with the whole world his happiness which was to be had by men who sacrificed and suffered in the search for truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Capital as such is not evil it is its wrong use that is evil. Capital in some form or other will always be needed.
Mahatma Gandhi
And he who would be friends with God must remain alone, or make the whole world his friend
