More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Every good movement passes through five stages, indifference, ridicule, abuse, repression, and respect.
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
The only things that separates us from the brute, with which we have so much in common, is the capacity to distinguish between right and wrong.
Mahatma Gandhi
Truth is the first thing to be sought for, and Beauty and Goodness will then be added unto you.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is a sad thing that our schoolboys look upon manual labour with disfavour, if not contempt.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have even seen the writings suggesting that I am playing a deep game, that I am using the present turmoil to foist my fads on India, and am making religious experiments at India's expense. I can only answer that Satyagraha is made of sterner stuff. There is nothing reserved and nothing secret in it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civil disobedience is the assertion of a right which law should give but which it denies.
Mahatma Gandhi
A genuine satyagraha should never excite contempt in the opponent even when it fails to command regard or respect.
Mahatma Gandhi
Decency and tolerance, to be of any value, must be capable of withstanding the severest strain.
Mahatma Gandhi
The cow is the purest type of sub-human life.
Mahatma Gandhi
For winning Swaraj one requires iron discipline.
Mahatma Gandhi
Untouchability is a terrible reality.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolent nationalism is a necessary condition of corporate or civilized life.
Mahatma Gandhi
If non-violence is the Law of our being, the future is with Women.
Mahatma Gandhi
Your beliefs become your thoughts, Your thoughts become your words, Your words become your actions, Your actions become your habits, Your habits become your values, Your values become your destiny.
Mahatma Gandhi
The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust. The world crushes the dust under its feet, but the seeker after truth should so humble himself that even the dust could crush him. Only then, and not till then, will he have a glimpse of truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
People become what they expect themselves to become
Mahatma Gandhi
A civilization based on nonviolence must be different from that organized for violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
No confirmed satyagrahi is dismayed by dangers, seen or unseen, from his opponent's side.
Mahatma Gandhi
Through the deliverance of India, I seek to deliver the so-called weaker races of the earth from the crushing heels of Western exploitation in which England is the greatest partner.
