More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi

Image
If India adopted the doctrine of love as an active part of her religion and introduced it in her politics. Swaraj would descend upon India from heaven. But I am painfully aware that that event is far off as yet.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Aggressive civil disobedience should be confined to a vindication of the right of free speech and free association.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Let us fear God and we shall cease to fear man.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
I will not have the power of nonviolence to be underestimated in order to cover my limitations or weaknesses.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honour than that she should, in a cowardly manner, become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
The function of violence is to obtain reform by external means, the function of passive resistance, that is, soul-force, is to obtain it by growth from within, which, in its turn, is obtained by self-suffering, self-purification.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
The Divine Music is incessantly ringing within all of us, but the loud senses drown the delicate Music, which is unlike and infinitely superior to anything we can perceive with our senses.
Mahatma Gandhi

Legal imposition avoids the necessity of honour or good faith.
Mahatma Gandhi

Hindu religious literature, indeed all religious literature, is full of illustrations to prove the truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Whatever does not exist in the body can't be found in the universe, and whatever exists in the universe can be found in the body.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Religion is a matter of the heart. No physical inconvenience can warrant abandonment of one's own religion.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
I should love to satisfy all, if I possibly can but in trying to satisfy all, I may be able to satisfy none. I have, therefore, arrived at the conclusion that the best course is to satisfy one’s own conscience and leave the world to form its own judgment, favorable or otherwise.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
The panoplied warrior of truth and nonviolence is ever and incessantly active.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
The sacrifice which causes sorrow to the doer of the sacrifice is no sacrifice. Real sacrifice lightens the mind of the doer and gives him a sense of peace and joy. The Buddha gave up the pleasures of life because they had become painful to him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
I believe in the capacity of India to offer nonviolent battle to the English rulers.
Mahatma Gandhi

My nationalism, fierce though it is, is not exclusive, is not devised to harm any nation or individual.
