More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
No empire intoxicated with the red wine of power and the plunder of weaker races has yet lived long in this world.
Mahatma Gandhi
Self-sacrifice of one innocent man is a million times more potent than the sacrifice of a million men who die in the act of killing others.
Mahatma Gandhi
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
My politics is my religion, my religion is my politics.
Mahatma Gandhi
The simplest acts of kindness are by far more powerful then a thousand heads bowing in prayer.

The chains of a slave are broken the moment he considers himself a free man.
Mahatma Gandhi
An India prostrate at the feet of Europe can give no hope to humanity.
Mahatma Gandhi
Earth and heaven are in us
Mahatma Gandhi
It may be long before the law of love will be recognised in international affairs. The machineries of government stand between and hide the hearts of one people from those of another.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is nothing on earth that I would not give up, excepting of course, two things and two things only, truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is difficult for me to regard anyone who obeys no moral principle in his conduct to be a religious man.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let us, by praying, purify ourselves and we shall not only remove untouchability but shall also hasten the advent of Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
The test of friendship is assistance in adversity, and that too, unconditional assistance, Co-operation which needs consideration is as a commercial contract and not friendship. Conditional co-operation is like adulterated cement which does not bind.
Mahatma Gandhi
If one has no affection for a person or a system, one should feel free to give the fullest expression to his disaffection so long as he does not contemplate, promote, or incite violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
The willing sacrifice of the innocents is the most powerful retort to insolent tyranny that has yet to be conceived by God or man.
Mahatma Gandhi
A democratic organization has to dare to do the right at all costs.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-co-operation means nothing less than training in self-sacrifice.
Mahatma Gandhi
Education should be so revolutionized as to answer the wants of the poorest villager, instead of answering those of an imperial exploiter.
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
The way to truth lies through ahimsa (nonviolence).
Mahatma Gandhi
