More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
[I]t seems to me as clear as daylight that abortion would be a crime.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though I cannot claim to be a Christian in the sectarian sense, the example of Jesus suffering is a factor in the composition of my undying faith in non-violence which rules all my actions, worldly and temporal.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we are nonviolent through and through, our nonviolence would have been self-evident.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom.
Mahatma Gandhi
The sacred thread and the tuft of hair without a pure heart and a spirit of toleration do not make a Hindu.

Mahatma Gandhi
When you are right,you have no need to be angry. When you are wrong, you have no right to be angry.
Mahatma Gandhi
That prince is acceptable to me who becomes a prince among his people's servants.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence does not require any outside or outward training.
Mahatma Gandhi
It's the action, not the fruit of the action, that's important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there'll be any fruit. But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Mahatma Gandhi
My knowledge of the letter of the Shastras is better, but of true religion they are able to give me but little.
Mahatma Gandhi
I cannot in all conscience agree to anyone being sent to the gallows. God alone can take life because He alone gives it . . .
Mahatma Gandhi
I came in contact with every known Indian anarchist in London. Their bravery impressed me, but I felt that their zeal was misguided. I felt that violence was no remedy for India's ills, and that her civilisation required the use of a different and higher weapon for self-protection. - Hind Swaraj
Mahatma Gandhi
