More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence abhors fear and therefore, secrecy.
Mahatma Gandhi
The story of the creation and similar things in it did not impress me very much, but on the contrary made me incline somewhat towards atheism.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Basic education links the children, whether of the cities or the villages, to all that is best and lasting in India.
Mahatma Gandhi
To forgive is not to forget. The merit lies in loving in spite of the vivid knowledge that one that must be loved is not a friend. There is not merit in loving an enemy when you forget him for a friend.
Mahatma Gandhi
You never know where your actions will lead to. But if you don't do anything they will lead you nowhere.
Mahatma Gandhi
God has blessed man with seed that has the highest potency and woman with a field richer than the richest earth to be found anywhere on his globe.
Mahatma Gandhi
I claim to be no more than an average man with below average capabilities.
Mahatma Gandhi
History supplied numerous instances to prove that brute force is as nothing before soul-force.
Mahatma Gandhi
