More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence in the sense of mere non-killing does not appear to me, therefore, to be of any improvement on the technique of violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even the most sublime ideas sound ridiculous if heard too often. Be the change that you want to see in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth, which is permanent, eludes the historian of events. Truth transcends history.
Mahatma Gandhi
You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind.
Mahatma Gandhi
I shall never know God if I do not wrestle with and against evil, even at the cost of life itself.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy is not a state in which people act like sheep.
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
... when all violence subsides in the human heart, the state which remains is love. It is not something we have to acquire it is always present, and needs only to be uncovered. This is our real nature, not merely to love one person here, another there, but to be love itself.
Mahatma Gandhi
Without satyagraha carried out in the proper spirit, there is no victory, no Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
Imperialism is a negation of God. It does ungodly acts in the name of God.
Mahatma Gandhi
If India adopted the doctrine of love as an active part of her religion and introduced it in her politics. Swaraj would descend upon India from heaven. But I am painfully aware that that event is far off as yet.
Mahatma Gandhi
What can be richer and more fruitful than a greater fulfillment of the vow of nonviolence in thought, word and deed or the spread of that spirit?
Mahatma Gandhi
Love in the sense of ahimsa has only a limited number of votaries in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
Complete independence will be complete only to the extent of our approach in practice to truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
The only true resistance to this Government... [is] to cease to co-operate with it.
Mahatma Gandhi
I want India to come into her own and that state cannot be better defined by any single word than Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
My religion teaches me to love all equally.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man's upward progress means ever increasing difficulty, which is to be welcomed.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is no beauty in the finest cloth if it makes hunger and unhappiness.
Mahatma Gandhi
