More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Faith is not a delicate flower which would wither away under the slightest stormy weather.
Mahatma Gandhi
A love that is based on the goodness of those whom you love is a mercenary affair.
Mahatma Gandhi
We want to go in for suffering, and there may be torture. If we put the women in front the Government may hesitate to inflict on us all the penalty that they might otherwise inflict.
Mahatma Gandhi
Strictly speaking, no activity and no industry is possible without a certain amount of violence, no matter how little. Even the very process of living is impossible without a certain amount of violence. What we have to do is to minimize it to the greatest extent possible.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even as wisdom often comes from the mouths of babes, so does it often come from the mouths of old people. The golden rule is to test everything in the light of reason and experience, no matter from where it comes.
Mahatma Gandhi
A democrat must be utterly selfless. He must think and dream not in terms of self or of party, but only of democracy.
Mahatma Gandhi
The function of violence is to obtain reform by external means, the function of passive resistance, that is, soul-force, is to obtain it by growth from within, which, in its turn, is obtained by self-suffering, self-purification.
Mahatma Gandhi
True religion being the greatest thing in life and in the world, has been exploited the most.
Mahatma Gandhi
Love is the subtlest force in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
The cow is the purest type of sub-human life.
Mahatma Gandhi
Sacrifice that causes pain is no sacrifice at all. True sacrifice is joy-giving and uplifting.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is a mark of wisdom not to kick away the very step from which we have risen higher. The removal of one step from a staircase brings down the whole of it.
Mahatma Gandhi
All men are born equal and free is not Nature's law in the literal sense.
Mahatma Gandhi
A man with a grain of faith in God never loses hope, because he ever believes in the ultimate triumph of Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Vaccination is a barbarous practice and one of the most fatal of all the delusions current in our time. Conscientious objectors to vaccination should stand alone, if need be, against the whole world, in defense of their conviction.
Mahatma Gandhi
Jesus was the most active resister known to history. His was nonviolence par excellence.
Mahatma Gandhi
You cannot succeed in one department of life while cheating on another, life is an indivisible whole.
Mahatma Gandhi
Where death without resistance or death after resistance is the only way, neither party should think of resorting to law-courts or help from the government.
Mahatma Gandhi
We often confuse spiritual knowledge with spiritual attainment. Spirituality is not a matter of knowing scriptures and engaging in philosophical discussions. It is a matter of heart culture, of unmeasurable strength.
Mahatma Gandhi
