More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
You may have occasion to possess or use material things, but the secret of life lies in never missing them.
Mahatma Gandhi
The Law and the Lawgiver are one.
Mahatma Gandhi
Painters and poets are obliged to exaggerate the proportions of their figures in order to give true perspective.
Mahatma Gandhi
My uniform experience has convinced me that there is no other God than Truth
Mahatma Gandhi
I could not be leading a religious life unless I identified myself with the whole of mankind, and that I could not do unless I took part in politics.
Mahatma Gandhi
I retain the opinion that council entry is inconsistent with non-co-operation as I conceive it.
Mahatma Gandhi
All compromise is based on give and take, but there can be no give and take on fundamentals. Any compromise on mere fundamentals is a surrender. For it is all give and no take.
Mahatma Gandhi
I must dissent emphatically from any proposal to spend any money on preparing a statue of me, more especially at a time when people do not have enough food and clothing.
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
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
All great religions have rightly regarded kama as the arch-enemy of man, anger or hatred coming only in the second place.
Mahatma Gandhi
Gentleness, self-sacrifice and generosity are the exclusive possession of no one race or religion.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hinduism would not have been much of a religion if Rama had not steeled his heart against every temptation.
Mahatma Gandhi
God never made man that he may consider another man as untouchable.
Mahatma Gandhi
If hand-spinning is an effective method of making India self-supporting, it must be made part of the franchise.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is not a weapon of the weak. It is a weapon of the strongest and bravest.
Mahatma Gandhi
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is force in the universe, which, if we permit it, will flow through us and produce miraculous results.
Mahatma Gandhi
The unparalleled extravagance of English rule has demented the rajas and the maharajas who, unmindful of consequences, ape it and grind their subjects to dust.
Mahatma Gandhi
