More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
One can measure the greatness and the moral progress of a nation by looking at how it treats its animals.
Mahatma Gandhi
To get Swaraj is to get rid of our helplessness.
Mahatma Gandhi
A straight fight in an equal battle takes some bravery, but braver is he who, knowing that he would have to sacrifice ninety-five as against five of the enemy, faces death.
Mahatma Gandhi
I cannot imagine anything nobler or more national than that for, say, one hour in the day we should all do the labor the poor must do, and thus identify ourselves with them and through them, with all mankind.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Woman, I hold, is the personification of self-sacrifice, but unfortunately today she does not realize what a tremendous advantage she has over man.

Mahatma Gandhi
A Swaraj government means a government established by the free joint will of Hindus, Mussalmans and others.

Everything I have personally experienced, and that also has been expressed by the leaders of the great religions points to the fact that a global spirituality already exists and was intrinsically there from the start as God (by whatever name) is one and is indivisible - everywhere outside time and place.
Mahatma Gandhi
The nonviolence I teach is active nonviolence of the strongest. But the weakest can partake in it without becoming weaker.
Mahatma Gandhi
Belief in non-violence is based on the assumption that human nature in the essence is one and therefore unfailingly responds to the advances of love.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you do nothing there will be no results
Mahatma Gandhi
The singular secret of khaddar lies in its saleability in the place of its production and use by the manufacturers themselves.
Mahatma Gandhi
Service is not possible unless it is rooted in love orahimsa.
Mahatma Gandhi
God will not be God, if He allowed Himself to be the object of proof by His creatures.
Mahatma Gandhi
A country whose culture is based on nonviolence will find it necessary to have every home as much self-contained as possible.
