More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The votary of ahimsa has only one fear, that is, of God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing depends upon the death of an individual, be he ever so great, but much depends upon the freedom of India.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is possible for a single individual to defy the whole might of an unjust empire to save his honor, his religion, his soul and lay the foundation for the empire's fall or its regeneration.
Mahatma Gandhi
We burn the evil men do with their mortal remains. We treasure the memory of the good they do, and distance magnifies it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Celibacy is a great help, inasmuch as it enables one to lead a life of full surrender to God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man has always desired power. Ownership of property gives this power. Man hankers also after posthumous fame based on power.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
The strength to kill is not essential for self-defence one ought to have the strength to die.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have worshipped woman as the living embodiment of the spirit of service and sacrifice.
Mahatma Gandhi
Where there is truth, there also is knowledge which is true.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have found by experience that man makes his plans to be upset by God, but, at the same time, where the ultimate goal is the search of truth, on matter how a man's plans are frustrated the issue is never injurious and often better than anticipated.
Mahatma Gandhi
A satyagrahi has always his minimum and it is this minimum that is wanted in connection with this struggle.
Mahatma Gandhi
Bullies are always to be found where there are cowards.
Mahatma Gandhi
Untouchability is an error of long standing.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we want Swaraj to be built on non-violence, we will have to give the villages their proper place.
Mahatma Gandhi
Sympathy is what you have for someone after they die, pity you have for someone when they don't have a date to the biggest dance of the year. Empathy is what I do to you when you judge me. Envy is having pity on yourself. Can you discern the rest for yourself?
Mahatma Gandhi
A vow is fixed and unalterable determination to do a thing, when such a determination is related to something noble which can only uplift the man who makes the resolve.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though we may know Him by a thousand names, He is one and the same to us all.
Mahatma Gandhi
Purification is never for the selfishly idle, it accrues only to the selflessly industrious.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man lives freely only by his readiness to die, if need be, at the hands of his brother, never by killing him.
Mahatma Gandhi
