More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The greater our innocence, the greater our strength and the swifter our victory
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
When I see a cow, it is not an animal to eat, it is a poem of pity for me and I worship it and I shall defend its worship against the whole world.
Mahatma Gandhi
Love is the strongest force the world possesses and yet it is the humblest imaginable.

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
Apparently, I've acted like a terrorist. But I'm not a terrorist.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Selfishness is blind.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
Mahatma Gandhi
I may have become Christian, were it not for Christians.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth and nonviolence are as old as the hills.
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
A democrat must be utterly selfless. He must think and dream not in terms of self or of party, but only of democracy.
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
The object of basic education is the physical, intellectual and moral development of children through the medium of handicraft.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have had the hardihood to say that Swaraj could not be granted even by God.
Mahatma Gandhi
