More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Swaraj is a hardy tree of patient growth.
Mahatma Gandhi
The bomb-throwers have discredited the cause of freedom, in whose name they threw the bombs.
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
No confirmed satyagrahi is dismayed by dangers, seen or unseen, from his opponent's side.

Under my plan, the state will be there to carry out the will of the people, not to dictate to them or to force them to do its will.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is simple impertinence for any man, or any body of men, to begin, or to contemplate, reform of the whole world.
