More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
There is no road to freedom, freedom is the road.
Mahatma Gandhi
You can judge a society by the way it treats it's animals
Mahatma Gandhi
A mind not set on God is given to wandering and lacks the quality of a temple of worship.
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
God in his wisdom circumscribed man's vision, and rightly too, for otherwise man's conceit would know no bounds.
Mahatma Gandhi
A vow is a purely religious act which cannot be taken in a fit of passion. It can be taken only with a mind purified and composed and with God as witness.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every good movement passes through five stages, indifference, ridicule, abuse, repression, and respect.
Mahatma Gandhi
My uniform experience has convinced me that there is no other God than Truth
Mahatma Gandhi
An error can never become true however many times you repeat it. The truth can never be wrong, even if no one hears it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Its unadulterated belief in the oneness of God and a practical application of the truth of the brotherhood of man for those who are nominally within its fold are two distinctive contributions of Islam.
Mahatma Gandhi
To a people famishing and idle, the only acceptable form in which God can dare appear is work and promise of food as wages.
Mahatma Gandhi
The only virtue I want to claim is truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.
Mahatma Gandhi
How can one be compelled to accept slavery? I simply refuse to do the master's bidding. He may torture me, break my bones to atoms and even kill me. He will then have my dead body, not my obedience. Ultimately, therefore, it is I who am the victor and not he, for he has failed in getting me to do what he wanted done.
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
Non-co-operation is not a movement of drag, bluster or bluff.
Mahatma Gandhi
But success and failure are of no account. They are God's concern, not mine.
Mahatma Gandhi
You don't know who is important to you until you actually lose them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is not an easy thing to understand, still less to practice, weak as we are.
Mahatma Gandhi
Often does good come out of evil. But that is God's, not man's plan.
Mahatma Gandhi
