More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The highest fulfillment of religion requires a giving up of all possessions.
Mahatma Gandhi
A principle is the expression of perfection, and as imperfect beings like us cannot practise perfection, we devise every moment limits of its compromise in practice.
Mahatma Gandhi
A general belief seems to prevail in the colony that the Indians are little better, if at all, than the savages or natives of Africa. Even the children are taught to believe in that manner, with the result that the Indian is being dragged down to the position of a raw Kaffir.
Mahatma Gandhi
Not those who shout 'satyagraha', 'satyagraha' will do satyagraha, but those who will work for it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Behaviour is the mirror in which we can display our image.
Mahatma Gandhi
Everything we do is futile, but we must do it anyway.
Mahatma Gandhi
To lose patience is to lose the battle.
Mahatma Gandhi
You may have occasion to possess or use material things, but the secret of life lies in never missing them.
Mahatma Gandhi
A democratic organization has to dare to do the right at all costs.
Mahatma Gandhi
If you want real peace in the world, start with children.
Mahatma Gandhi
Strictly speaking, no activity and no industry is possible without a certain amount of violence, no matter how little. Even the very process of living is impossible without a certain amount of violence. What we have to do is to minimize it to the greatest extent possible.
Mahatma Gandhi
Fearlessness presupposes calmness and peace of mind.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every single act of one who would lead a life of purity should be in the nature of yajna.
Mahatma Gandhi
If the English educated neglect, as they have done and even now continue, as some do, to be ignorant of their mother tongue, linguistic starvation will abide.
Mahatma Gandhi
Satyagraha, of which civil resistance is but a part, is to me the universal law of life.
Mahatma Gandhi
The method of satyagraha requires that the satyagrahi should never lose hope, so long as there is the slightest ground left for it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Concentrate on your task.
Mahatma Gandhi
The inner voice is something which cannot be described in words. But sometimes we have a positive feeling that something in us prompts us to do a certain thing. The time when I learnt to recognise this voice was, I may say, the time when I started praying regularly.
Mahatma Gandhi
Learn as if you will live forever.
Mahatma Gandhi
To safeguard democracy the people must have a keen sense of independence, self-respect, and their oneness.
Mahatma Gandhi
