More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
I claim to be no more than an average man with below average capabilities.
Mahatma Gandhi
The music of the spinning wheel will be as balm to your soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
Woman, I hold, is the personification of self-sacrifice, but unfortunately today she does not realise what a tremendous advantage she has over man.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Vedas are as indefinable as God and Hinduism.
Mahatma Gandhi
A wretched parent who claims obedience from his children, without first doing his duty by them, excites nothing but contempt.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is nothing on earth that I would not give up, excepting of course, two things and two things only, truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
I worship the God that is Truth or Truth which is God through the service of these millions.
Mahatma Gandhi
If my nonviolence is to be contagious and infectious, I must acquire greater control over my thoughts.
Mahatma Gandhi
The devotee of truth is often obliged to grope in the dark.
Mahatma Gandhi
Sympathy is what you have for someone after they die, pity you have for someone when they don't have a date to the biggest dance of the year. Empathy is what I do to you when you judge me. Envy is having pity on yourself. Can you discern the rest for yourself?
Mahatma Gandhi
The spinning wheel means national consciousness and a contribution by every individual to a definite constructive national work.
Mahatma Gandhi
India unarmed would not require to be destroyed through poison gas or bombardment.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hatred is not essential for nationalism. Race hatred will kill the real national spirit.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the best thing to blame ourselves when people cannot get on well with us. Boundless charity necessarily includes all or it ceases to be boundless. We must be strict with ourselves and lenient with our neighbors. For we know not their difficulties and what they overcome.
Mahatma Gandhi
God to be God must rule the heart and transform it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism is a living organism. One and indivisible at the root, it has grown into a vast tree with innumerable branches. Knowledge is limitless and so also the application of truth. Everyday we add to our knowledge of the power of Atman (soul) and we shall keep on doing so.
Mahatma Gandhi
I understood . . . that those who desired salvation should act like the trustee who, though having control over great possessions, regards not an iota of them as his own.
Mahatma Gandhi
I call God long-suffering and patient precisely because He permits evil in the world. I know that He has no evil in Him and yet if there is evil, He is the author of it and yet untouched by it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every good movement passes through five stages, indifference, ridicule, abuse, repression, and respect.
Mahatma Gandhi
When a man wants to make up with his Maker, he does not consult a third party.
Mahatma Gandhi
