More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Reason has to be strengthened by suffering, and suffering opens the eyes of understanding.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is no beauty in the finest cloth if it makes hunger and unhappiness.
Mahatma Gandhi
Active nonviolence of the brave puts to flight thieves, dacoits, murderers, and prepares an army of volunteers ready to sacrifice themselves in quelling riots, in extinguishing fires and feuds, and so on.
Mahatma Gandhi
The real property that a parent can transmit to all equally is his or her character and educational facilities.
Mahatma Gandhi
Is the God of the Mahometan different from the God of the Hindu? Religions are different roads converging to the same point. What does it matter that we take different roads so long as we reach the same goal? Wherein is the cause for quarreling?
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph: a beginning, a struggle, and a victory.
Mahatma Gandhi
My freedom from hatred - I would even claim for myself individually, my love - for those who consider themselves to be my enemies, does not make me blind to their faults.
Mahatma Gandhi
All faiths constitute a revelation of Truth, but all are imperfect and liable to error.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is nothing but nonviolence to fall back upon for retaining our freedom, even as we had to do for gaining it.
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 privilege of resisting or disobeying a particular law or order accrues only to him who gives willing and unswerving obedience to the laws laid down for him.
Mahatma Gandhi
The function of Nayee-Talim is not to teach an occupation, but through it to develop the whole man.
