More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
I can combine the greatest love with the greatest opposition to wrong.
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
It was manly and dignified to rely upon God for the dissolution of all troubles. He was the only infallible help, guide and friend.
Mahatma Gandhi
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
Heroes are made in the hour of defeat
Mahatma Gandhi
I claim that human mind or human society is not divided into watertight compartments called social, political and religious. All act and react upon one another.
Mahatma Gandhi
My religion teaches me that a promise once made or a vow once taken for a worthy object may not be broken.
Mahatma Gandhi
My faith runs so very much faster than my reason that I can challenge the whole world and say, 'God is, was and ever shall be'.
Mahatma Gandhi
Devotion required by the Gita is no soft-hearted effusiveness.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth, which is permanent, eludes the historian of events. Truth transcends history.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is necessary first to purify the drunken and dissolute worshippers in charge of some of these temples.
Mahatma Gandhi
When a man vowed to nonviolence as the law governing human beings dares to refer to war, he can only do it so as to strain every nerve to avoid it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every woman will tell the curious that with the disappearance of the spinning wheel vanished India's happiness and prosperity.
Mahatma Gandhi
You can't shake hands with a closed fist.
Mahatma Gandhi
As long as you derive inner help and comfort from anything, keep it.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we had attained the full vision of Truth, we would no longer be seekers, but become one with God, for Truth is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
A person who believes in nonviolence believes in a living God. He cannot accept defeat.
Mahatma Gandhi
My only sanction is the love and affection in which you hold me. But it has its weaknesses, as it has its strengths.
Mahatma Gandhi
Retaliation is counter-poison and poison breeds more poison. The nectar of Love alone can destroy the poison of hate.
Mahatma Gandhi
I would like to bury myself in an Indian village, preferably in a Frontier village.
Mahatma Gandhi
