More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Christianity in India is inextricably mixed up for the last hundred and fifty years with the British rule.
Mahatma Gandhi
Himsa does not need to be taught, Man as animal is violent, but as spirit is nonviolent.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is no yajna (sacrifice) greater than spinning calculated to bring peace to the troubled spirit, to soothe the distracted student's mind, to spiritualize his life.
Mahatma Gandhi
All the religions of the world, while they may differ in other respects, unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
We Hindus and Mohamedans would have to blame our folly rather than the English, if we allowed them to put us asunder.
Mahatma Gandhi
My mother would tell me that the shortest cut to purification after the unholy touch was to cancel the touch by touching any Mussalman passing by.

Mahatma Gandhi
The greatness of a person lies in his heart, not in his head that is intellect.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not want my house to be rounded by walls and my windows to be closed to other cultures. I wish to become familiar with the culture of lands as much as possible but I will not permit them to affect me or shake me from my own status.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cowards can never be moral.
Mahatma Gandhi
For thousands to do to death a few hundreds is no bravery. It is worse than cowardice. It is unworthy of nationalism, of any religion.
Mahatma Gandhi
God has enabled man to distinguish between his sister, his mother, his daughter and his wife.
Mahatma Gandhi
I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill.
Mahatma Gandhi
Religion is not like a house or a cloak which can be changed at will.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is the law of love that rules mankind.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we were to drive out the English with the weapons with which they enslaved us, our slavery would still be with us even when they have gone.
Mahatma Gandhi
It may be long before the law of love will be recognised in international affairs. The machineries of government stand between and hide the hearts of one people from those of another.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth stands for the fact, nonviolence negates the fact.
Mahatma Gandhi
