More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
A certain degree of physical harmony and comfort is necessary, but above a certain level it becomes a hindrance instead of a help. Therefore the ideal of creating an unlimited number of wants and satisfying them seems to be a delusion and a snare.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing will demoralize the nation so much as that we should learn to despise labour.
Mahatma Gandhi
Enter with me into the sufferings, not only of the people of India but of the whole world. Nonviolence is a more active and real fight against wickedness than retaliation whose very nature is to increase wickedness. It is not a weapon of the weak. It is a weapon of the strongest and bravest.
Mahatma Gandhi
Generosity consists not the sum given, but the manner in which it is bestowed
Mahatma Gandhi
I hold flesh-food to be unsuited to our species. We err in copying the lower animal world if we are superior to it.
Mahatma Gandhi
A votary of ahimsa must cultivate the habit of unremitting toil, sleepless vigilance, ceaseless self-control.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Bible is as much a book of religion with me as the Gita and the Koran.
Mahatma Gandhi
Those who are truthful, nonviolent and brave do not cease to be so because of the stupidity of their leader.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Eye for eye and the world will go blind.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violence is not a garment to be put on and off at will. Its seat is in the heart, and it must be an inseparable part of our being.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Enlightened one has told you in never-to-be-forgotten words that this little span of life is but a passing shadow, a fleeting thing.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violence, which is the quality of the heart, cannot come by an appeal to the brain.
Mahatma Gandhi
We want freedom for our country, but not at the expense or exploitation of others, not so as to degrade other countries.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is always a limit to self-indulgence, but none to self-restraint.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolent nationalism is a necessary condition of corporate or civilized life.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Muslim is as much an Indian as I am and of the same blood.
Mahatma Gandhi
Khaddar was conceived with a much more ambitious object, that is, to make our villages starvation-proof.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth is as hard as adamant and tender as a blossom.
Mahatma Gandhi
Force, violence, pressure, or compulsion with a view to conformity, are both uncivilized and undemocratic
Mahatma Gandhi
