More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Whilst power, superimposed, always needs the help of the police and the military, power generated from within should have little or no use of them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Painters and poets are obliged to exaggerate the proportions of their figures in order to give true perspective.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not want any patronage, as I do not give any. I am a lover of my own liberty, and so I would do nothing to restrict yours. I simply want to please my own conscience which is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
One man cannot do right in one department of life whilst he is occupied in doing wrong in any other department. Life is one indivisible whole
Mahatma Gandhi
Keep your values positive, because your values become your destiny.
Mahatma Gandhi
Forgive and forget, but never forget to forgive. You may find a happier heart is the key to a happier life.
Mahatma Gandhi
We should meet abuse by forbearance. Human nature is so constituted that if we take absolutely no notice of anger or abuse, the person indulging in it will soon weary of it and stop.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cowardice is impotence worse than violence. The coward desires revenge but being afraid to die, he looks to others, maybe to the government of the day, to do the work of defense for him. A coward is less than a man. He does not deserve to be a member of a society of men and women.
Mahatma Gandhi
In Swaraj, based on ahimsa, people need not know their rights, but it is also necessary for them to know their duties.
Mahatma Gandhi
I must not refrain from saying that India can gain more by waiving the right of punishment.
Mahatma Gandhi
The strength to kill is not essential for self-defence one ought to have the strength to die.
Mahatma Gandhi
Conquer the heart of the enemy with truth and love, not by violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every person in a well-ordered state is fully conscious of both his responsibilities and his rights.
Mahatma Gandhi
Civilization is not an incurable disease, but it should never be forgotten that the English people are at present afflicted by it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Economic equality is the master-key to nonviolent independence.
Mahatma Gandhi
If God holds me to be a pure instrument for the spread of nonviolence in place of the awful violence now ruling the earth, He will give me the strength and show me the way.
Mahatma Gandhi
I understand democracy as something that gives the weak the same chance as the strong.
Mahatma Gandhi
