More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
There must be power in the word of a satyagraha general, not the power that the possession of limitless arms gives, but the power that purifies life which strict vigilance and a ceaseless application produce.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is man's social nature which distinguishes him from the brute creation. If it is his privilege to be independent, it is equally his duty to be inter-dependent. Only an arrogant man will claim to be independent of everybody else and be self-contained.
Mahatma Gandhi
Swadeshism is not a cult of hatred. It is a doctrine of selfless service that has its roots in the purest ahimsa, i.e. love.
Mahatma Gandhi
My dharma teaches me to give my life for the sake of others without even attempting to kill.
Mahatma Gandhi
The central fact of Hinduism is cow protection.
Mahatma Gandhi
Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the Jews on the Arabs... Surely it would be a crime against humanity to reduce the proud Arabs so that Palestine can be restored to the Jews partly or wholly as their national home
Mahatma Gandhi
The sum of all that lives is God.
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
There is no distrust of men and mankind in me. They will answer before God, so why should I worry?
Mahatma Gandhi
God alone is the judge of true greatness because He knows men's hearts.
Mahatma Gandhi
Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances.
Mahatma Gandhi
Healthy and nourishing food was the only alpha and omega of rural economy.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is better to be charged with cowardice and weakness than to be guilty of denial of our oath and sin against God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our nonviolence vis-а-vis the British Government has been the nonviolence of the weak.
Mahatma Gandhi
It goes without saying that moderation and sobriety are of the very essence of vow-taking.
Mahatma Gandhi
Moral result can only be produced by moral restraints.
Mahatma Gandhi
Anger, lust and such other evil passions raging in the heart are the real untouchables.
Mahatma Gandhi
Appreciation of nonviolence means patient research and still more patient and difficult practice.
Mahatma Gandhi
You can't shake hands with a closed fist.
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
