More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Sickness is the result not only of our acts, but out thoughts also.
Mahatma Gandhi
Without real nonviolence, there would be perfect anarchy.
Mahatma Gandhi
Punishment is God's. He alone is the infallible Judge.
Mahatma Gandhi
If God is vast and boundless as the ocean, how can a tiny drop like man imagine what He is?
Mahatma Gandhi
Self-suppression is often necessary in the interest of truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
I realized the true function of a lawyer was to unite parties riven asunder. The lesson was so indelibly burnt into me that a large part of my time during the twenty years of my practice as a lawyer was occupied in bringing about private compromises of hundreds of cases. I lost nothing thereby -- not even money, certainly not my soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
Mass civil disobedience is like an earthquake, a sort of general upheaval on the political plane.
Mahatma Gandhi
Death is at any time blessed but it is twice blessed for a warrior who dies for his cause, that is, truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
True beauty consists of purity of heart.
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
I cannot in all conscience agree to anyone being sent to the gallows. God alone can take life because He alone gives it . . .
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe in the essential unity of all that lives. Therefore, I believe that if one person gains spiritually, the whole world gains, and that if one person falls, the whole world falls to that extent.
Mahatma Gandhi
Life becomes livable only to the extent that death is treated as a friend, never as an enemy.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violent resistance implies the very opposite of weakness. Defiance combined with non-retaliatory acceptance of repression from one's opponents is active, not passive. It requires strength, and there is nothing automatic or intuitive about the resoluteness required for using non-violent methods in political struggle and the quest for Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
In the characteristics of the perfected man of the Gita, I do not see any to correspond to physical warfare.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even a single lamp dispels the deepest darkness.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you want to change the world, start with yourself.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not wish my house to be walled and my windows stuffed. I want all cultures to blow freely through my dwelling.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our prayer is a heart search. It is a reminder to ourselves that we are helpless without His support.
Mahatma Gandhi
