One's everyday life is never capable of being separated from his spiritual being.

A definite forgiveness would mean a definite recognition of our strength.

Voluntary service of others demands the best of which one is capable, and must take precedence over service of self.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

My optimism rests on my belief in the infinite possibilities of the individual to develop nonviolence. . . . In a gentle way you can shake the world.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Running away for fear of deat...

Running away for fear of death, leaving one's dear ones, temples or music to take care of themselves, is irreligion; it is cowardice.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

The Truth is far more powerful than any weapon of mass destruction.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

A convert's enthusiasm for his new religion is greater than that of a person who is born in it.

When you practice a life of non-violence you no longer need seek the truth, the truth finds you.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

I have even seen the writings...

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 3458 quotes

Had we adopted non-violence a...

Had we adopted non-violence as the weapon of the strong, because we realised that it was more effective than any other weapon, in fact the mightiest force in the world, we would have made use of its full potency and not have discarded it as soon as the fight against the British was over or we were in a position to wield conventional weapons. But as I have already said, we adopted it out of our helplessness. If we had the atom bomb, we would have used it against the British.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Violent means will give viole...

Violent means will give violent freedom.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

We are constantly being astonished these days at the amazing discoveries in the field of violence. But I maintain that far more undreamt of and seemingly impossible discoveries will be made in the field of nonviolence.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

And whilst he may not claim superiority by reason of learning, I myself must not withold that meed of homage that learning, wherever it resides, always commands.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

I believe in trusting. Trust begets trust. Suspicion is foetid and only stinks. He who trusts has never yet lost in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

That prince is acceptable to me who becomes a prince among his people's servants.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Let not the spirit wander while the words of prayer run on out of our mouth.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

If India adopted the doctrine...

If India adopted the doctrine of love as an active part of her religion and introduced it in her politics. Swaraj would descend upon India from heaven. But I am painfully aware that that event is far off as yet.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Men flocked to see it and ascended it as it was a novelty and of unique dimensions. It was the toy of the exhibition. So long as we are children we are attracted by toys, and the tower was a good demonstration of the fact that we are all children attracted by trinkets. That may be claimed to be the purpose served by the Eiffel Tower.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

Children inherit the qualitie...

Children inherit the qualities of the parents, no less than their physical features. Environment does play an important part, but the original capital on which a child starts in life is inherited from its ancestors. I have also seen children successfully surmounting the effects of an evil inheritance. That is due to purity being an inherent attribute of the soul.

Mahatma Gandhi 3458 quotes

It is impossible for me to re...

It is impossible for me to reconcile myself to the idea of conversion after the style that goes on in India and elsewhere today. It is an error which is perhaps the greatest impediment to the world's progress toward peace. ... Why should a Christian want to convert a Hindu to Christianity? Why should he not be satisfied if the Hindu is a good or godly man?
