Image
Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Violence is bound sooner or later to exhaust itself but peace cannot issue out of such exhaustion.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
The movement of nonviolent non-co-operation has nothing in common with the historical struggles for freedom in the West.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Think of the poorest person you know and see if your next act will be of any use to him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Whenever you take a step forward, you are bound to disturb something. You disturb the air as you go forward, you disturb the dust, the ground. You trample upon things. When a whole society moves forward, this trampling is on a much bigger scale and each thing that you disturb, each vested interest which you want to remove, stands as an obstacle.
Mahatma Gandhi

A rabbit that runs away from the bull-terrier is not particularly non-violent.
Mahatma Gandhi

No government on earth can make men, who have realized freedom in their hearts, salute against their will.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Insistence on truth can come into play when one party practices untruth or injustice. Only then can love be tested. True friendship is put to the test only when one party disregards the obligation of friendship.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Satyagraha can rid society of all evils, political, economic and moral.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Renunciation is everyone's prerogative.
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
Image
Intellect takes us along in the battle of life to a certain limit, but at the crucial moment it fails us. Faith transcends reason. It is when the horizon is the darkest and human reason is beaten down to the ground that faith shines brightest and comes to our rescue.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
I felt that God could be realized only through service. And service for me was the service of India, because it came to me without my seeking, because I had an aptitude for it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
To double your successes, you might have to double your failure rate.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
I do believe that ideas ripen quickly when nourished by the blood of martyrs.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Unexampled bravery, born of nonviolence, coupled with strict honesty shown by a fair number of Muslims, is sure to infect the whole of India.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Non-co-operation is not a movement of drag, bluster or bluff.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
What is a man if he is not a thief who openly charges as much as he can for the goods he sells?
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
That nation is great which rests its head upon death as its pillow.
Mahatma Gandhi
