Mahatma Gandhi Quotes

*An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
*Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.
*I believe in equality for everyone, except reporters and photographers.
*The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
*Prayer is not an old woman's idle amusement. Properly understood and applied, it is the most potent instrument of action.
*The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
*A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.
*Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory.
*Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's need, but not every man's greed.
*It is the quality of our work which will please God and not the quantity.
*Rights that do not flow from duty well performed are not worth having.
*The history of the world is full of men who rose to leadership, by sheer force of self-confidence, bravery and tenacity.
*You may think your actions are meaningless and that they won't help, but that is no excuse, you must still act.
*Whatever you do may seem insignificant, but it is most important that you do it.
*No culture can live, if it attempts to be exclusive. Mahatma GandhiHonest disagreement is often a good sign of progress.
*The greater our innocence, the greater our strength and the swifter our victory.
*Interdependence is and ought to be as much the ideal of man as self-sufficiency. Man is a social being.
* When I admire the wonder of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in worship of the Creator.
*The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
*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.
*Action expresses priorities. Mahatma GandhiIntolerance is itself a form of violence and an obstacle to the growth of a true democratic spirit. Mahatma GandhiIntolerance betrays want of faith in one's cause.
*Personally, I hold that a man, who deliberately and intelligently takes a pledge and then breaks it, forfeits his manhood.
*Adaptability is not imitation. It means power of resistance and assimilation.
*Men say I am a saint losing myself in politics. The fact is that I am a politician trying my hardest to be a saint.
*Surely conversion is a matter between man and his Maker who alone knows his creatures' hearts. A conversion without a clean heart is, in my opinion, a denial of God and Religion. Conversion without cleanliness of heart can only be a matter of sorrow, not joy, to a godly person.
*There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.
*There are limits to self-indulgence, none to restraint.
*Restraint never ruins one's health. What ruins it is not restraint but outward suppression. A really self-restrained person grows every day from strength to strength and from peace to more peace. The very first step in self-restraint is the restraint of thoughts.
