More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Today I know that physical training should have as much place in the curriculum as mental training.
Mahatma Gandhi
I can no more preach nonviolence to a cowardly man than I can tempt a blind man to enjoy healthy scenes.
Mahatma Gandhi
That nation is great which rests its head upon death as its pillow.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is my conviction that the root of evil is the want of a living God.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism has made marvelous discoveries in things of religion, of the spirit, of the soul. We have no eye for these great and fine discoveries. We are dazzled by the material progress that Western science has made. Ancient India has survived because Hinduism was not developed along material but spiritual lines.
Mahatma Gandhi
The call of the spinning wheel is the noblest of all. Because it is the call of love. And love is Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
Outward appearance is nothing to Him if it is not an expression of the inner.
Mahatma Gandhi
Seek not greater wealth, but simpler pleasure not higher fortune, but deeper felicity.
Mahatma Gandhi
Infinite Love is a weapon of matchless potency. It is the 'summum bonum' of life. It is an attribute of the brave, in fact it is their all. It does not come within the each of the coward. It is no wooden of lifeless dogma but a living and life-giving.
Mahatma Gandhi
The foundation of service and your real training lie in spinning khaddar.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is not a mistake to commit a mistake, for no one commits a mistake knowing it to be one. But it is a mistake not to correct the mistake after knowing it to be one. If you are afraid of committing a mistake, you are afraid of doing anything at all. You will correct your mistakes whenever you find them.
Mahatma Gandhi
People cannot hurt you without your permission.
Mahatma Gandhi
Behaviour is the mirror in which we can display our image.
Mahatma Gandhi
The ally we must cultivate is the part of our enemy which knows the truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
The path of Truth is as narrow as it is straight. Even so is that of ahimsa.
Mahatma Gandhi
To call woman the weaker sex is a libel it is man's injustice to woman. If by strength is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is woman less brute than man. If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man's superior.
Mahatma Gandhi
To see the universal and all-pervading Spirit of Truth face to face, one must be able to love the meanest of all creation as oneself.
Mahatma Gandhi
All the four stages in a man's life are devised by the seers in Hinduism for imposing discipline and self-restraint.
Mahatma Gandhi
I felt that God could be realized only through service. And service for me was the service of India, because it came to me without my seeking, because I had an aptitude for it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Infinite striving to be the best is man's duty it is its own reward. Everything else is in God's hands.
Mahatma Gandhi
