More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
There is only one God for us all, whether we find him through the Koran, the Zend-Avesta, The Tolmud, or the Gita.
Mahatma Gandhi
I am but a poor struggling soul yearning to be wholly good, wholly truthful and wholly non-violent in thought, word and deed, but ever failing to reach the ideal which I know to be true. It is a painful climb, but each step upwards makes me feel stronger and fit for the next.
Mahatma Gandhi
To a starving man, God can only appear in the form of bread.
Mahatma Gandhi
Robust faith in oneself and brave trust of the opponent, so called or real, is the best safeguard.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is weakness which breeds fear, and fear breeds distrust.
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
Lovers of Swaraj cannot rest till a solution is found which would allay Mussalman apprehensions and yet not endanger Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
A religion cannot be sustained by the number of its lip-followers denying in their lives its tenets.
Mahatma Gandhi
By education, I mean an all-round drawing of the best in child and man in body, mind and spirit.
Mahatma Gandhi
One has to speak out and stand up for one's convictions. Inaction at a time of conflagration is inexcusable.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is open to a war resister to judge between the combatants and wish success to the one who has justice on his side. By so judging he is more likely to bring peace between the two than by remaining a mere spectator.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Gita is not an aphoristic work, it is a great religious poem.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whenever you take a step forward, you are bound to disturb something. You disturb the air as you go forward, you disturb the dust, the ground. You trample upon things. When a whole society moves forward, this trampling is on a much bigger scale and each thing that you disturb, each vested interest which you want to remove, stands as an obstacle.
Mahatma Gandhi
Being dissatisfied and properly dissatisfied with the husk of Hinduism, you are in danger of losing even the kernel, life itself.
Mahatma Gandhi
If there ever is to be a republic of every village in India, then I claim verity for my picture in which the last is equal to the first or, in other words, no one is to be the first and none the last.
Mahatma Gandhi
By ahimsa we will be able to save the cow and also win the friendship of the English.
Mahatma Gandhi
God is not in Kaaba or in Kashi. He is within everyone of us.
Mahatma Gandhi
The truest test of civilization, culture and dignity is character and not clothing.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is a plant of slow growth, it grows imperceptibly but surely.
Mahatma Gandhi
A Swaraj government means a government established by the free joint will of Hindus, Mussalmans and others.
Mahatma Gandhi
