More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The use of soul-force for turning stones into bread would have been considered, as it is still considered, as black magic.
Mahatma Gandhi
Its unadulterated belief in the oneness of God and a practical application of the truth of the brotherhood of man for those who are nominally within its fold are two distinctive contributions of Islam.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe in the capacity of India to offer nonviolent battle to the English rulers.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even the atheists, who have pretended to disbelieve in God, have believed in Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Without satyagraha carried out in the proper spirit, there is no victory, no Swaraj.
Mahatma Gandhi
It may be long before the law of love will be recognised in international affairs. The machineries of government stand between and hide the hearts of one people from those of another.
Mahatma Gandhi
My creed of nonviolence is an extremely active force.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-co-operation in an angry atmosphere is an impossibility.
Mahatma Gandhi
The outward freedom that we shall attain will only be in exact proportion to the inward freedom to which we may have grown at a given moment. And if this is a correct view of freedom, our chief energy must be concentrated on achieving reform from within.
Mahatma Gandhi
Is a civilization worth the name, which requires, for its existence the very doubtful prop of a racial legislation and a lynch law?
Mahatma Gandhi
Ram Mohan Roy would have been a greater reformer and Lokmanya Tilak a greater scholar if they had not to start with the handicap of having to think in English and transmit their thoughts chiefly in English.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is nonviolent non-co-operation which evokes the highest spirit of self-sacrifice that will wean one from the error of one's ways.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth (satya) is positive, nonviolence is negative.
Mahatma Gandhi
True ahimsa should wear a smile even on a deathbed brought about by an assailant. It is only with that ahimsa that we can befriend our opponents and win their love.
Mahatma Gandhi
The lower animals are our brethren. I include among them the lion and the tiger. We do not know how to live with these carnivorous beasts and poisonous reptiles because of our ignorance.
Mahatma Gandhi
A balanced intellect presupposes a harmonious growth of body, mind and soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
When nonviolence is accepted as the law of life, it must pervade the whole being and not be applied to isolated acts.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even a single lamp dispels the deepest darkness.
Mahatma Gandhi
Earth and heaven are in us
Mahatma Gandhi
The highest truth needs no communicating, for it is by its very nature self-propelling. It radiates its influence silently as the rose its fragrance without the intervention of a medium.
Mahatma Gandhi
