More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
The West has yet to discover anything so hygienic as the Indian toothstick.
Mahatma Gandhi
The only force at the disposal of democracy is that of public opinion.
Mahatma Gandhi
If the people resolve and carry out this programme of boycott and Swadeshi, they would not have to wait for Swaraj even for a year.
Mahatma Gandhi
In the characteristics of the perfected man of the Gita, I do not see any to correspond to physical warfare.
Mahatma Gandhi
The nonviolence I teach is active nonviolence of the strongest. But the weakest can partake in it without becoming weaker.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whatever strength the masses have is due entirely to ahimsa, however imperfect or defective its practice might have been.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Kaffirs are as a rule uncivilized - the convicts even more so. They are troublesome, very dirty and live almost like animals.
Mahatma Gandhi
A successful bloody revolution can only mean further misery for the masses.
Mahatma Gandhi
Intellect takes us along in the battle of life to a certain limit, but at the crucial moment it fails us. Faith transcends reason. It is when the horizon is the darkest and human reason is beaten down to the ground that faith shines brightest and comes to our rescue.
Mahatma Gandhi
God lives, but not as we. His creatures live but to die. But God is life. Therefore, goodness is not an attribute. Goodness is God.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is a mark of wisdom not to kick away the very step from which we have risen higher. The removal of one step from a staircase brings down the whole of it.
Mahatma Gandhi
Purity of life is the highest and truest art.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence of the strong cannot be a mere policy. It must be a creed, or a passion, if 'creed' is objected to.
Mahatma Gandhi
God accepts the sacrifice of the pure in heart.
Mahatma Gandhi
We want to go in for suffering, and there may be torture. If we put the women in front the Government may hesitate to inflict on us all the penalty that they might otherwise inflict.
Mahatma Gandhi
I do not want to live at the cost of the life even of a snake. I should let him bite me to death rather than kill him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Will Great Britain have an unwilling India dragged into war or a willing ally co-operating with her in the prosecution of a defence of true democracy?
Mahatma Gandhi
Man is neither mere intellect not the gross animal body, nor the heart or soul alone.
Mahatma Gandhi
