More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence means an ocean of compassion. It means shedding from us every trace of ill will for others. It does not mean abjectness or timidity, or fleeing in fear. It means, on the contrary, firmness of mind and courage, a resolute spirit.
Mahatma Gandhi
The movement of nonviolent non-co-operation has nothing in common with the historical struggles for freedom in the West.
Mahatma Gandhi
In times to come people will not judge us by the creed we profess or the label we wear or the slogans we shout, but, by our work, industry, sacrifice, honesty and purity of character.
Mahatma Gandhi
God to be God must rule the heart and transform it.

Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.
Mahatma Gandhi

How can I even secretly harbour the thought that my neighbour's faith is inferior to mine?
Mahatma Gandhi
The more I study Hindu scriptures, and the more I discuss them with Brahmins, the more I feel convinced that untouchability is the greatest blot upon Hinduism.
Mahatma Gandhi
Religion is the tie that binds one to one's Creator, and whilst the body perishes, as it has to, religion persists even after death.
Mahatma Gandhi
