More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Prayer is the only means of bringing about orderliness and peace and repose in our daily acts.
Mahatma Gandhi
All sins are committed in secrecy. The moment we realize that God witnesses even our thoughts, we shall be free.
Mahatma Gandhi
One can measure the greatness and the moral progress of a nation by looking at how it treats its animals.
Mahatma Gandhi
Anything which is a hindrance to the fight of the soul is a delusion and a snare, even like the body which often does hinder you in the path of salvation.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have had the hardihood to say that Swaraj could not be granted even by God.
Mahatma Gandhi
As the elephant is powerless to think in the terms of the ant, in spite of the best intentions in the world, even so is the Englishman powerless to think in the terms of, or legislate for, the Indian.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Any young man, who makes dowry a condition to marriage, discredits his education and his country and dishonours womanhood.
Mahatma Gandhi
A nonviolent person's life is always at the disposal of him who would take it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Is the God of the Mahometan different from the God of the Hindu? Religions are different roads converging to the same point. What does it matter that we take different roads so long as we reach the same goal? Wherein is the cause for quarreling?
Mahatma Gandhi
No displeasure, even of the dearest friends, can put me off the duty I see clearly in front of me.
Mahatma Gandhi
Is a civilization worth the name, which requires, for its existence the very doubtful prop of a racial legislation and a lynch law?
Mahatma Gandhi
If she [woman] is weak in striking, she is strong in suffering.
Mahatma Gandhi
By spiritual training I mean education of the heart.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let the Jews who claim to be the chosen race prove their title by choosing the way of non-violence for vindicating their position on earth. Every country is their home, including Palestine, not by aggression but by loving service
Mahatma Gandhi
In the Gita continuous concentration on God is the king of sacrifices.
Mahatma Gandhi
The idol in the temple is not God. But since God resides in every atom, He resides in that idol too.
Mahatma Gandhi
If Hinduism teaches hatred of Islam or of non-Hindus, it is doomed to destruction.
Mahatma Gandhi
