More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The hardest metal yields to sufficient heat. Even so must the hardest heart melt before sufficiency of the heat of non- violence. And there is no limit to the capacity of non-violence to generate heat.
Mahatma Gandhi
Kaffirs are as a rule uncivilized - the convicts even more so. They are troublesome, very dirty and live almost like animals.
Mahatma Gandhi
The saving of labour of the individual should be the object and honest humanitarian considerations, and not greed, the motive.

Mahatma Gandhi
Ethically they had arrived at the conclusion that man's supremacy over lower animals meant not that the former should prey upon the latter, but that the higher should protect the lower, and that there should be mutual aid between the two as between man and man. They had also brought out the truth that man eats not for enjoyment but to live.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you don't ask, you don't get it
Mahatma Gandhi
Belief in one God is the cornerstone of all religions.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is a sad thing that our schoolboys look upon manual labour with disfavour, if not contempt.
Mahatma Gandhi
When a man wants to make up with his Maker, he does not consult a third party.
Mahatma Gandhi
Just as one must learn the art of killing in the training for violence, so one must learn the art of dying in the training for nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
A nation that is capable of limitless sacrifice is capable of rising to limitless heights. The purer the sacrifice the quicker the progress.
Mahatma Gandhi
