More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The real meaning of economic equality is To each according to his need.
Mahatma Gandhi
[It] is impossible for us to establish a living vital connection with the masses unless we will work for them, through them and in their midst, not as their patrons but as their servants.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hitler killed five million Jews. It is the greatest crime of our time. But the Jews should have offered themselves to the butcher's knife. They should have thrown themselves into the sea from cliffs. As it is, they succumbed anyway in their millions.
Mahatma Gandhi
Vaccination is a barbarous practice and one of the most fatal of all the delusions current in our time. Conscientious objectors to vaccination should stand alone, if need be, against the whole world, in defense of their conviction.
Mahatma Gandhi
If our ahimsa is not of the brave but of the weak, and if it will bend the knee before himsa, Gandhism deserves to be destroyed.
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
God is not a Power residing in the clouds. He is an unseen Power residing within us and nearer to us than finger nails to the flesh.
Mahatma Gandhi
Earth and heaven are in us
Mahatma Gandhi
That which makes man the mere plaything of fate is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
There are two days in the year that we can not do anything, yesterday and tomorrow
Mahatma Gandhi
All compromise is based on give and take, but there can be no give and take on fundamentals. Any compromise on mere fundamentals is a surrender. For it is all give and no take.
Mahatma Gandhi
The object of the Gita appears to me to be that of showing the most excellent way to attain self-realization.
Mahatma Gandhi
God lives, but not as we. His creatures live but to die. But God is life. Therefore, goodness is not an attribute. Goodness is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Be the compromise you want to see in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
A certain degree of physical harmony and comfort is necessary, but above a certain level it becomes a hindrance instead of a help. Therefore the ideal of creating an unlimited number of wants and satisfying them seems to be a delusion and a snare.
Mahatma Gandhi
All faiths constitute a revelation of Truth, but all are imperfect and liable to error.
Mahatma Gandhi
That nonviolence which only an individual can use is not of much use in terms of society.
Mahatma Gandhi
A vow is a purely religious act which cannot be taken in a fit of passion. It can be taken only with a mind purified and composed and with God as witness.
Mahatma Gandhi
We are all very imperfect and weak things, and if we are to destroy all whose ways we do not like, there will be not a man left alive.
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
