More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
We cannot be speakers who do not listen. But neither can we be listeners who do not speak.
Mahatma Gandhi
To change one's religion under the threat of force is no conversion but rather cowardice.
Mahatma Gandhi
Continue to grow and evolve.
Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi is dead to his body even before the enemy attempts to kill him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
Mahatma Gandhi
Proved right should be capable of being vindicated by right means as against the rude i.e. sanguinary means. Man may and should shed his own blood for establishing what he considers to be his right. He may not shed the blood of his opponent who disputes his 'right'.
Mahatma Gandhi
I call the Lancashire trade immoral, because it was raised and is sustained on the ruin of millions of India's peasants.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is an ever-growing belief with me that truth cannot be found by violent means.
Mahatma Gandhi
A national spirit is necessary for national existence. A flag is a material aid to the development of such a spirit.
Mahatma Gandhi
The incident deepened my feeling for the Indian settlers. I discussed with them the advisability of making a test case, if it were found necessary to do so, after having seen the British Agent in the matter of these regulations.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth is like a vast tree which yields more and more fruit the more you nurture it. The deeper the search in the mind of truth, the richer the discovery of the gems buried there.
Mahatma Gandhi
India's freedom must revolutionize the world's outlook upon Peace and War.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence becomes meaningless if violence is permitted for self-defence.
Mahatma Gandhi
We may attack systems. We must not attack men.
Mahatma Gandhi
My fight against untouchability is a fight against the impure in humanity.
Mahatma Gandhi
Jail-going is only the beginning, not the end of satyagraha. The acme of satyagraha for us would be to lay down our lives for the defence of India's just cause.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nirvana is the utter extinction of all that is base in us, all that is vicious in us. Nirvana is not like the black, dead peace of the grave, but the living peace, the living happiness of a soul which is conscious of itself and conscious of having found its own abode in the heart of the Eternal.
Mahatma Gandhi
Like the watch, the heart needs the winding of purity, or the Dweller ceases to speak.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is no one without faults, not even men of God. They are men of God not because they are faultless, but because they know their faults, they strive against them, they do not hide them, and are ever ready to correct themselves.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cow protection means protection of the weak, the helpless, the dumb and the deaf.
Mahatma Gandhi
