Mahatma Gandhi
I do not want my house to be rounded by walls and my windows to be closed to other cultures. I wish to become familiar with the culture of lands as much as possible but I will not permit them to affect me or shake me from my own status.
Mahatma Gandhi
All sins are committed in secrecy. The moment we realize that God witnesses even our thoughts, we shall be free.
Mahatma Gandhi
Woman, I hold, is the personification of self-sacrifice, but unfortunately today she does not realize what a tremendous advantage she has over man. As Tolstoy used to say, they are laboring under the hypnotic influence of man. If they would realize the strength of non-violence they would not consent to be called the weaker sex.
Mahatma Gandhi
God has His own way of choosing His instruments.
Mahatma Gandhi
No one can dominate a population of 80,000,000.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every living faith must have within itself the power of rejuvenation if it is to live
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe in trusting. Trust begets trust. Suspicion is foetid and only stinks. He who trusts has never yet lost in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
History is replete with instances of men, who, by dying with courage and compassion on their lips converted the hearts of their violent opponents.
Mahatma Gandhi
