You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty. -Mahatma Gandhi
In tribute of his Birthday, we’ve put together a list of some of Mahatma Gandhi’s best quotes!
- A man is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes.
- The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
- We must become the change we want to see.
- Whenever you have truth it must be given with love, or the message and the messenger will be rejected.
- My imperfections and failures are as much a blessing from God as my successes and my talents and I lay them both at his feet.
- God has no religion.
- The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
- Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed.
- An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind.
- The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world’s problems.
- Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one’s weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
- The Roots of Violence: Wealth without work, Pleasure without conscience, Knowledge without character, Commerce without morality, Science without humanity, Worship without sacrifice, Politics without principles.
- I believe in the fundamental Truth of all the great religions of the world. I believe that they are all God given. I came to the conclusion long ago… that all religions were true and also that all had some error in them.
- Intolerance is itself a form of violence and an obstacle to the growth of a true democratic spirit.
- It is easy enough to be friendly to one’s friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business.
- Justice that love gives is a surrender, justice that law gives is a punishment.
- Let us all be brave enough to die the death of a martyr, but let no one lust for martyrdom.
- One’s own religion is after all a matter between oneself and one’s Maker and no one else’s.
- Poverty is the worst form of violence.
- A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history.
- The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
- Nearly everything you do is of no importance, but it is important that you do it.
- They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.
- Just as the body cannot exist without blood, so the soul needs the matchless and pure strength of faith.
