More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
When you want to find Truth as God, the only inevitable means is love, that is nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
... when all violence subsides in the human heart, the state which remains is love. It is not something we have to acquire it is always present, and needs only to be uncovered. This is our real nature, not merely to love one person here, another there, but to be love itself.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Prayer is a sign of repentance, a desire to become better, purer.
Mahatma Gandhi
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
The sacred thread and the tuft of hair without a pure heart and a spirit of toleration do not make a Hindu.
Mahatma Gandhi
Everything we do is futile, but we must do it anyway.
Mahatma Gandhi
In this day of wonders no one will say that a thing or an idea is worthless because it is new. To say it is impossible because it is difficult is again not in consonance with the spirit of the age. Things undreamt of are daily being seen, the impossible is ever becoming possible.
Mahatma Gandhi
Honesty is incompatible with amassing a large fortune.
Mahatma Gandhi
In His boundless love God permits the atheist to live.
Mahatma Gandhi
Diversity there certainly is in the world, but it means neither inequality nor untouchability.
Mahatma Gandhi
Who can deny that much that passes for science and art today destroys the soul instead of uplifting it and instead of evoking the best in us, panders to our basest passions?
Mahatma Gandhi
Mr. Gandhi, you have been working fifteen hours a day for fifty years. Don't you think you should take a vacation? Gandhi smiled and replied, I am always on vacation.
Mahatma Gandhi
The meaning of prayer is that I want to evoke that Divinity within me.
Mahatma Gandhi
I honor the place within you where, when you are in that place in you and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us.
Mahatma Gandhi
