More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
We believe as much in the purity of race as we think they do... We believe also that the white race of South Africa should be the predominating race.
Mahatma Gandhi
For a non-violent person the whole world is one family. He will thus fear none, nor will others fear him.
Mahatma Gandhi
A seeker of truth will never begin by discounting his opponent's statement as unworthy of trust.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence being the mightiest force in the world and also the most elusive in its working, demands the greatest exercise of faith.
Mahatma Gandhi
The spinning wheel is itself an exquisite piece of machinery. My head daily bows in reverence to its unknown inventor.
Mahatma Gandhi
Exploitation of the poor can be extinguished not by effecting the destruction of a few millionaires, but by removing the ignorance of the poor and teaching them to non-cooperate with their exploiters.
Mahatma Gandhi
We cannot be speakers who do not listen. But neither can we be listeners who do not speak.
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
Prayer can come in only when fasting has done its work. It can make fasting easy and bearable.
Mahatma Gandhi
You cannot build nonviolence on a factory civilization, but it can be built on self-contained villages.
Mahatma Gandhi
I came alone in this world, I have walked alone in the valley of the shadow of death, and I shall quit alone when the time comes.
Mahatma Gandhi
Purification being highly infectious, purification of oneself necessarily leads to the purification of one's surroundings.
Mahatma Gandhi
Tolerance is the only thing that will enable persons belonging to different religions to live as good neighbours and friends.
Mahatma Gandhi
In fact, it is more correct to say that Truth is God, than to say that God is Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Be the compromise you want to see in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
Keep your values positive, because your values become your destiny.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I was to be their real teacher and guardian, I must touch their hearts, I must share their joys and sorrows, I must help them to solve the problems that faced them, and I must take along the right channel the surging aspirations of their youth.
Mahatma Gandhi
My religion is based on truth and non-violence. Truth is my God. Non-violence is the means of realising Him.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we were to drive out the English with the weapons with which they enslaved us, our slavery would still be with us even when they have gone.
Mahatma Gandhi
The man who coerces another not to eat fish commits more violence than he who eats it.
Mahatma Gandhi
