More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
If Hinduism teaches hatred of Islam or of non-Hindus, it is doomed to destruction.
Mahatma Gandhi
Humankind has to get out of violence only through non-violence. Hatred can be overcome only by love. Counter - hatred only increases the surface as well as the depth of hatred.
Mahatma Gandhi
Think of the poorest person you know and see if your next act will be of any use to him.
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
It is necessary first to purify the drunken and dissolute worshippers in charge of some of these temples.
Mahatma Gandhi
Khadi work without the mastery of the science of khadi will be love's labour lost in terms of Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
In Hinduism we have got an admirable foot-rule to measure every shastra and every rule of conduct, and that is truth.
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
Crime and vice generally require darkness for prowling. They disappear when light plays upon them.
Mahatma Gandhi
A genuine satyagraha should never excite contempt in the opponent even when it fails to command regard or respect.
Mahatma Gandhi
My politics is my religion, my religion is my politics.
Mahatma Gandhi
We cannot have real independence unless the people banish the touch-me-not spirit from their hearts.
Mahatma Gandhi
Unless nonviolence of the strong is really developed among us, there should be no thought of civil disobedience for Swaraj, whether within the states or in British India.
Mahatma Gandhi
No Swaraj government with any pretension to being a popular government can possibly be organised and maintained on a war-footing.
Mahatma Gandhi
If everyone will try to understand the core of his own religion and adhere to it, and will not allow false teachers to dictate to him, there will be no room left for quarrelling.
Mahatma Gandhi
Ravana was a rakshasa but this rakshasi of untouchability is even more terrible than Ravana.
Mahatma Gandhi
When I don't understand something, I reach up and hold God's hand. And we walk together in silence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man the law-giver will have to pay a dreadful penalty for the degradation he has imposed upon the so called weaker sex.
Mahatma Gandhi
Temples are like spiritual hospitals, and the sinful, who are spiritually diseased, have the first right to be ministered to by them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cowards can never be moral.
