More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
One is ever young in the presence of the God of Truth, or Truth which is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
While everything around me is ever changing, ever dying, there is underlying that change a living power that is changeless, that holds all together, that creates, dissolves and recreates.... For I can see in the midst of death, life persists, in the midst of untruth, truth persists, in the midst of darkness light persists.
Mahatma Gandhi
There is no 'as far as possible' on the question of untouchability. If it is to go, it must go in its entirety from the temples as from everywhere else.
Mahatma Gandhi
Religion is one tree with many branches. As branches, you may say, religions are many, but as a tree, religion is only one.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing in the Shastra, which is manifestly contrary to universal truths and morals, can stand.
Mahatma Gandhi
I cannot think of permanent enmity between man and man, and believing as I do in the theory of reincarnation, I live in the hope that if not in this birth, in some other birth I shall be able to hug all of humanity in friendly embrace.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cow protection is the gift of Hinduism to the world.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civil disobedience is the assertion of a right which law should give but which it denies.
Mahatma Gandhi
The call of the spinning wheel is the noblest of all. Because it is the call of love. And love is Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
Terrorism and deception are weapons not of the strong, but of the weak.
Mahatma Gandhi
All sins are committed in secrecy. The moment we realize that God witnesses even our thoughts, we shall be free.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is better to be charged with cowardice and weakness than to be guilty of denial of our oath and sin against God.
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
Fear of death makes us devoid both of valour and religion. For want of valour is want of religious faith.
Mahatma Gandhi
When every hope is gone, 'when helpers fail and comforts flee,' I find that help arrives somehow, from I know not where. Supplication, worship, prayer are no superstition they are acts more real than the acts of eating, drinking, sitting or walking. It is no exaggeration to say that they alone are real, all else is unreal.
Mahatma Gandhi
By ahimsa we will be able to save the cow and also win the friendship of the English.
Mahatma Gandhi
You cannot stop big wars if you carry on little wars yourselves.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even a little untruth destroys a man, as a drop of poison ruins milk.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have in my life never been guilty of saying things I did not mean - my nature is to go straight to the heart and if often I fail in doing so for the time being, I know that Truth ultimately makes itself heard and felt, as it has often done in my experience.
Mahatma Gandhi
Political power means the capacity to regulate national life through national representatives.
Mahatma Gandhi
