Mahatma Gandhi
Our ability to reach unity in diversity will be the beauty and the test of our civilization.
Mahatma Gandhi
For me there is a vital connection between the Bihar calamity and the untouchability campaign.
Mahatma Gandhi
My nationalism, fierce though it is, is not exclusive, is not devised to harm any nation or individual.
Mahatma Gandhi
Intellect takes us along in the battle of life to a certain limit, but at the crucial moment it fails us. Faith transcends reason. It is when the horizon is the darkest and human reason is beaten down to the ground that faith shines brightest and comes to our rescue.
Mahatma Gandhi
I know that not only is Swaraj our birthright, but it is our sacred duty to win it.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Seek not greater wealth, but simpler pleasure not higher fortune, but deeper felicity.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Bhagavadgita is a gospel of non-co-operation between the forces of darkness and those of light.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy disciplined and enlightened is the finest thing in the world. A democracy prejudiced, ignorant, superstitious, will land itself in chaos and may be self-destroyed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy is a great institution and, therefore, it is liable to be greatly abused.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Life becomes livable only to the extent that death is treated as a friend, never as an enemy.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civil disobedience does not admit of any violence or countenancing of violence directly or indirectly.
Mahatma Gandhi
The world is big enough to satisfy everyones needs, but will always be too small to satisfy everyones greed
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violent resistance implies the very opposite of weakness. Defiance combined with non-retaliatory acceptance of repression from one's opponents is active, not passive. It requires strength, and there is nothing automatic or intuitive about the resoluteness required for using non-violent methods in political struggle and the quest for Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
If we are true servants of the masses, we would take pride in spinning for their sake.
Mahatma Gandhi
