Mahatma Gandhi

“Faith is not something to grasp, it is a state to grow into.”

“God has no religion.”

“I believe in the fundamental truth of all great religions of the world.”

“My religion is based on truth and nonviolence. Truth is my god, nonviolence the means of realizing him.”

“A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave.”

“Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.”

“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.”

“It is not enough not to fight injustice. We must speak out against it.”

“If I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.”

“An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.”

“If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.”

“Forgiveness is choosing to love. It is the first skill of self-giving love.”

“By education I mean an all-round drawing out of the best in child and man — body, mind and spirit.”

“Literacy is not the end of education or even the beginning. By education I mean an all-round drawing out of the best.”

“An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching.”

“You may never know what results come of your actions, but if you do nothing, there will be no results.”

“A man is but the product of his thoughts; what he thinks, he becomes.”

“The good man is the friend of all living things.”

“I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him.”
