For me the present is merged in eternity. I may not sacrifice the latter for the present.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

A person who is worried about ...

A person who is worried about the outcome of his work does not see his goal; he sees only his opposition and the obstacles before him.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

A true soldier does not argue ...

A true soldier does not argue as he marches, how success is going to be ultimately achieved. But he is confident that if he only plays his humble part well, somehow or other the battle will be won. In is that spirit that every one of us should act. It is not given to us to know the future. But it is given to everyone of us to know how to do our own part well.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Truth quenches untruth, love q...

Truth quenches untruth, love quenches anger, self-suffering quenches violence. This eternal rule is a rule not for saints only but for all.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Even as wisdom often comes from the mouths of babes, so does it often come from the mouths of old people. The golden rule is to test everything in the light of reason and experience, no matter from where it comes.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Abstract truth has no value un...

Abstract truth has no value unless it incarnates in human beings who represent it, by proving their readiness to die for it.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

He who trifles with truth cuts...

He who trifles with truth cuts at the root of Ahimsa [non-violence]. He who is angry is guilty of Himsa.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Breach of promise is no less an act of insolvency than a refusal to pay one's debt.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

However much I may sympathise ...

However much I may sympathise with and admire worthy motives, I am an uncompromising opponent of violent methods even to serve the noblest of causes.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Experience convinces me that p...

Experience convinces me that permanent good can never be the outcome of untruth & violence. Even if my belief is a fond delusion, it will be admitted that it is a fascinating delusion.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Non-violence is not a quality ...

Non-violence is not a quality to be evolved or expressed to order. It is an inward growth depending for sustenance upon intense individual effort.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Non-violence and cowardice are...

Non-violence and cowardice are contradictory terms. Non-violence is the greatest virtue, cowardice the greatest vice. Non-violence springs from love, cowardice from hate. Non-violence always suffers, cowardice would always inflict suffering. Perfect non-violence is the highest bravery. Non-violent conduct is never demoralising; cowardice always is.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Better than cowardice is killi...

Better than cowardice is killing and being killed in battle.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Let no one charge me with ever...

Let no one charge me with ever having abused or encouraged weakness or surrendered on matters of principle. But I have said, as I say again, that every trifle must not be dignified into a principle.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Real suffering bravely borne, ...

Real suffering bravely borne, melts even a heart of stone. Such is the potency of suffering. And there lies the key to Satyagraha.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Man and his deed are two disti...

Man and his deed are two distinct things. Whereas a good deed should call forth approbation and a wicked deed dis-approbation, the doer of the deed, whether good or wicked always deserves respect or pity as the case may be. Hate the sin and not the sinner is a precept which though easy enough to understand is rarely practised, and that is why the poison of hatred spreads in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

A man who broods on evil is as...

A man who broods on evil is as bad a man who does evil, if he is no worse.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Man has reason, discrimination...

Man has reason, discrimination and free-will such as it is. The brute has no such thing. It is not a free agent, and knows no distinction between virtue and vice, good and evil. Man, being a free agent, knows these distinctions, and when he follows his higher nature, shows himself far superior to the brute, but when he follows his baser nature can show himself lower than the brute.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Woman in the companion of man,...

Woman in the companion of man, gifted with equal mental capacities. She has the right to participate in the minutest details in the activities of man, and she has equal right to liberty of freedom and liberty with him.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

It is the law of love that rul...

It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, rules us we would have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that the so-called civilised men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis of society was violence.
