More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
I claim that in losing the spinning wheel we lost our left lung. We are, therefore, suffering from galloping consumption. The restoration of the wheel arrests the progress of the fell disease.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-co-operation means refusal both to help the sinner in his sin and not to accept any help or gift from him till he has repented.
Mahatma Gandhi
A man who broods on evil is as bad a man who does evil, if he is no worse.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism is like the Ganga, pure and unsullied at its source but taking in its course the impurities in the way. Even like the Ganga it is beneficent in its total effect. It takes a provincial form in every province, but the inner substance is retained everywhere.
Mahatma Gandhi
A true man of piety will consider himself a sinner and, therefore, untouchable.

Mahatma Gandhi
There is more to life than increasing its speed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Vehement writing, even if it is charged with truth, is no answer to violent action.
Mahatma Gandhi
And everyone who wills can hear the Voice. It is within every one. But like everything else it requires previous and definite preparation.
Mahatma Gandhi
The force of the spirit is ever progressive and endless. Its full expression makes it unconquerable in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
My austerities, fasting and prayers are, I know, of no value if I rely upon them for reforming me. My penance is the prayer of a bleeding heart for forgiveness for sins unwittingly committed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is impossible without humility.
Mahatma Gandhi
