Mahatma Gandhi
God never occurs to you in person but always in action.
Mahatma Gandhi
In satyagraha, a courted imprisonment carries its own praise.

Mahatma Gandhi
Recall the face of the poorest and weakest man you have seen, and ask yourself if this step you contemplate is going to be any use to him.
Mahatma Gandhi
My faith runs so very much faster than my reason that I can challenge the whole world and say, 'God is, was and ever shall be'.
Mahatma Gandhi
Morality is the basis of things and truth is the substance of all morality.
Mahatma Gandhi
One who hooks his fortune to ahimsa, the law of love, daily lessens the circle of destruction and to that extent promotes life and love.
Mahatma Gandhi
Our prayer is a heart search. It is a reminder to ourselves that we are helpless without His support.
Mahatma Gandhi
A weak man is just by accident. A strong but non-violent man is unjust by accident.
Mahatma Gandhi
If I were asked to define the Hindu creed, I should simply say: search after Truth through non-violent means. Hinduism is a relentless pursuit after truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
