More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Mankind has to get out of violence only through non-violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Spiritually, compulsory disarmament has made us unmanly, and the presence of an alien army of occupation, employed with deadly effect to crush in us the spirit of resistance, has made us think we cannot look after ourselves or put up a defense against foreign aggression, or even defend our homes and families.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we import compulsion in matters of religion, there is no doubt that we shall be committing suicide.
Mahatma Gandhi
The day a woman can walk freely on the roads at night, that day we can say that India has achieved independence
Mahatma Gandhi
Self-sacrifice of one innocent man is a million times more potent than the sacrifice of a million men who die in the act of killing others.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is no occasion for women to consider themselves subordinate or inferior to man
Mahatma Gandhi
Generosity consists not the sum given, but the manner in which it is bestowed
Mahatma Gandhi
It is no easy task to do away with a thing that is established. We, therefore, say that the non-beginning of a thing is supreme wisdom.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though we may know Him by a thousand names, He is one and the same to us all.
Mahatma Gandhi
Appreciation of nonviolence means patient research and still more patient and difficult practice.
Mahatma Gandhi
No human being is so bad as to be beyond redemption.
Mahatma Gandhi
The richest grace of ahimsa will descend easily upon the owner of hard discipline.
Mahatma Gandhi
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
The outward freedom that we shall attain will only be in exact proportion to the inward freedom to which we may have grown at a given moment. And if this is a correct view of freedom, our chief energy must be concentrated on achieving reform from within.
Mahatma Gandhi
To lose patience is to lose the battle.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing enduring can be built on violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
God is that indefinable something which we all feel but which we do not know.
Mahatma Gandhi
A Swaraj government means a government established by the free joint will of Hindus, Mussalmans and others.
Mahatma Gandhi
I know that Buddhism is to Hinduism what Protestantism is to Roman Catholicism, only in a much stronger light, to a much greater degree.
Mahatma Gandhi
A true and nonviolent combination of labour would act like a magnet attracting to it all the needed capital.
Mahatma Gandhi
