It is the reformer who is anxious for the reform, and not society, from which he should expect nothing better than opposition, abhorrence and even mortal persecution.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Courtesy towards opponents and...

Courtesy towards opponents and eagerness to understand their view-point is the ABC of non-violence.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

It ill becomes us to invoke in...

It ill becomes us to invoke in our daily prayers the blessings of God, the Compassionate, if we in turn will not practice elementary compassion toward our fellow creatures.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Ours is one continual struggle...

Ours is one continual struggle against a degradation sought to be inflicted upon us by the Europeans, who desire to degrade us to the level of the raw Kaffir whose occupation is hunting, and whose sole ambition is to collect a certain number of cattle to buy a wife with and, then, pass his life in indolence and nakedness.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

I know that I have still befor...

I know that I have still before me a difficult path to traverse. I must reduce myself to zero. So long as a man does not of his own free will put himself last among his fellow creatures, there is no salvation for him. Ahimsa is the farthest limit of humility.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

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 3458 quotes

Silence becomes cowardice when occasion demands speaking out the whole truth and acting accordingly.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

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.

Love is the strongest force the world possesses and yet it is the humblest imaginable.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

All our philosophy is as dry as dust if it is not immediately translated into some act of living service.

Every worthy act is difficult. Ascent is always difficult. Descent is easy and often slippery.

I consider myself a Hindu, Christian, Moslem, Jew, Buddhist and Confucian.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

I believe in the fundamental truth of all great religions of the world. I believe that they are all God- given and I believe that they were necessary for the people to whom these religions were revealed. And I believe that if only we could all of us read the scriptures of the different faiths from the standpoints of the followers of these faiths, we should find that they were at bottom all one and were all helpful to one another.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Among the many misdeeds of the...

Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest. If we want the Arms Act to be repealed, if we want to learn the use of arms, here is a golden opportunity. If the middle classes render voluntary help to Government in the hour of its trial, distrust will disappear, and the ban on possessing arms will be withdrawn.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

I know nothing of the science of astrology and I consider it to be a science, if it is a science, of doubtful value, to be severely left alone by those who have any faith in Providence.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

The path of self-purification ...

The path of self-purification is hard and steep. One has to become absolutely passion-free in thought, speech and action to rise above the opposing currents of love and hatred, attachment and repulsion. I know that I have not in me as yet that triple purity in spite of constant ceaseless striving for it. That is why the world's praise fails to move me, indeed it very often stings me. To conquer the subtle passions seems to me to be harder far than the physical conquest of the world by the force of arms.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Those with the greatest awareness have the greatest nightmares.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

The hardest metal yields to sufficient heat. Even so must the hardest heart melt before sufficiency of the heat of non- violence. And there is no limit to the capacity of non-violence to generate heat.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

The Bhagavad-Gita calls on humanity to dedicate body, mind and soul to pure duty and not to become mental voluptuaries at the mercy of random desires and undisciplined impulses.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

I do not consider Hitler to be as bad as he is depicted. He is showing an ability which is amazing and he seems to be gaining his victories without much bloodshed.
