More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
If every component part of the nation claims the right of self-determination for itself, there is no one nation and there is no independence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Buddha renounced every worldly happiness because he wanted to share with the whole world his happiness which was to be had by men who sacrificed and suffered in the search for truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
I am but a poor struggling soul yearning to be wholly good, wholly truthful and wholly non-violent in thought, word and deed, but ever failing to reach the ideal which I know to be true. It is a painful climb, but each step upwards makes me feel stronger and fit for the next.
Mahatma Gandhi
I considered becoming a Christian... until I met one.
Mahatma Gandhi
I travel third-class because there is no fouth-class.
Mahatma Gandhi
Forgive and forget, but never forget to forgive. You may find a happier heart is the key to a happier life.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe that the sum total of the energy of mankind is not to bring us down but to lift us up, and that is the result of the definite, if unconscious, working of the law of love. The fact that mankind persists shows that the cohesive force is greater than the disruptive force, centripetal force greater than centrifugal.
Mahatma Gandhi
Earth and heaven are in us
Mahatma Gandhi
Just as there are signs by which you can recognize violence with the naked eye, so is the spinning wheel to me a decisive sign of nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Newspapers today have almost replaced the Bible, the Koran, the Gita and other religious scriptures.
Mahatma Gandhi
God answers prayer in His own way, not ours.
Mahatma Gandhi
I regard the constituent assembly as the substitute ofsatyagraha. It is constructive satyagraha.
Mahatma Gandhi
It has always been a mystery to me how men can feel themselves honoured by the humiliation of their fellow beings.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is not an easy thing to understand, still less to practice, weak as we are.
Mahatma Gandhi
A votary of ahimsa must cultivate the habit of unremitting toil, sleepless vigilance, ceaseless self-control.
Mahatma Gandhi
After long study and experience, I have come to the conclusion that (1) all religions are true (2) all religions have some error in them (3) all religions are almost as dear to me as my own Hinduism, in as much as all human beings should be as dear to one as one's own close relatives.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy is not a state in which people act like sheep.
Mahatma Gandhi
Do you think I am superstitious? I am a super-atheist.
Mahatma Gandhi
Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well. There is nothing more potent than thought. Deed follows word and word follows thought. The word is the result of a mighty thought, and where the thought is mighty and pure the result is always mighty and pure.
Mahatma Gandhi
Everything I have personally experienced, and that also has been expressed by the leaders of the great religions points to the fact that a global spirituality already exists and was intrinsically there from the start as God (by whatever name) is one and is indivisible - everywhere outside time and place.
Mahatma Gandhi
