More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
It is not a mistake to commit a mistake, for no one commits a mistake knowing it to be one. But it is a mistake not to correct the mistake after knowing it to be one. If you are afraid of committing a mistake, you are afraid of doing anything at all. You will correct your mistakes whenever you find them.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Selfishness is blind.
Mahatma Gandhi
What the two hands of the labourer can achieve, the capitalist will never get with all his gold and silver.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civility does not ...mean the mere outward gentleness of speech cultivated for the occasion, but an inborn gentleness and desire to do the opponent good.
Mahatma Gandhi
The hardest metal yields to sufficient heat. Even so must the hardest heart melt before sufficiency of the heat of non- violence. And there is no limit to the capacity of non-violence to generate heat.
Mahatma Gandhi
We do want to drive out the beast in man, but we do not want on that account to emasculate him.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we have the khadi spirit in us, then we should surround ourselves with simplicity in every walk of life.
