More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Live simply so that others may simply live.
Mahatma Gandhi
Blaming the wolf would not help the sheep much. The sheep must learn not to fall in the clutches of the wolf.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though we are politically free, we are hardly free from the subtle domination of the West.
Mahatma Gandhi
God alone is the judge of true greatness because He knows men's hearts.
Mahatma Gandhi
The test of friendship is assistance in adversity, and that too, unconditional assistance, Co-operation which needs consideration is as a commercial contract and not friendship. Conditional co-operation is like adulterated cement which does not bind.
Mahatma Gandhi
Where there is love there is life.
Mahatma Gandhi
Marriage must cease to be a matter of arrangement made by parents for money.
Mahatma Gandhi
Insistence on truth can come into play when one party practices untruth or injustice. Only then can love be tested. True friendship is put to the test only when one party disregards the obligation of friendship.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is not an easy thing to understand, still less to practice, weak as we are.
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
Woman, I hold, is the personification of self-sacrifice, but unfortunately today she does not realize what a tremendous advantage she has over man. As Tolstoy used to say, they are laboring under the hypnotic influence of man. If they would realize the strength of non-violence they would not consent to be called the weaker sex.
Mahatma Gandhi
Action expresses priorities.
Mahatma Gandhi
My swadeshi chiefly centers round the handspun khaddar and extends to everything that can be and is produced in India.
Mahatma Gandhi
Unexampled bravery, born of nonviolence, coupled with strict honesty shown by a fair number of Muslims, is sure to infect the whole of India.
Mahatma Gandhi
Forgiveness is choosing to love. It is the first skill of self-giving love.
Mahatma Gandhi
The devotion of such titans of spirit as Lenin to an Ideal must bear fruit. The nobility of his selflessness will be an example through centuries to come, and his Ideal will reach perfection.
Mahatma Gandhi
Learn as if you will live forever.
Mahatma Gandhi
The saving of labour of the individual should be the object and honest humanitarian considerations, and not greed, the motive.
Mahatma Gandhi
In Hinduism we have got an admirable foot-rule to measure every shastra and every rule of conduct, and that is truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Sacrifice that causes pain is no sacrifice at all. True sacrifice is joy-giving and uplifting.
Mahatma Gandhi
