Mahatma Gandhi

• The Rich must live more simply so that the Poor may simply live.
• 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.
• It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.
• Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.
• The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.
• To believe in something, and not live it, is dishonest.
• Why change the world when we can change ourselves?

• We need to be the change we wish to see in the world.
• Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.
• My life is my message.

• I regard myself as a soldier, though a soldier of peace.
• There are many causes I would die for. There is not a single cause I would kill for.
• We must always seek to ally ourselves with that part of the enemy that knows what is right.
• There is no way to peace; peace is the way.

• An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.
• Truth never damages a cause that is just.

• Hope is eternal - Its worship never goes in vain.

• Speak only if it improves upon the silence.
• (When beginning a protest against the British rule of India, by breaking a law whereby Indians were not permitted to manufacture salt from seawater. Spoken after picking up a piece of raw salt from the seashore.) With this salt I am shaking the foundations of the [British] empire.

• The more subtle a force is, the more effective it becomes. Love is the greatest force in the world.

• Hinduism is a relentless pursuit of Truth. Truth is God and if today it has become moribund, inactive, irresponsive to growth, it is because we are fatigued; and as soon as the fatigue is over, Hinduism will burst upon the world with a brilliance perhaps unknown before.
• I am a Hindu because it is Hinduism which makes the world worth living. I am a Hindu hence I Love not only human beings, but all living beings.
• Even as a tree has a single trunk but many branches and leaves, there is one religion — human religion — but any number of faiths.
• I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.
• I believe that Gandhi's views were the most enlightened of all the political men of our time. We should strive to do things in his spirit: not to use violence for fighting for our cause, but by non-participation of anything you believe is evil. — Albert Einstein

• A lot of people are waiting for Martin Luther King or Mahatma Gandhi to come back -- but they are gone. We are it. It is up to us. It is up to you. — Marian Wright Edelman
• Gandhi was a pacifist, but we might suspect him to have been something of a "militant pacifist" at heart: he would have used force to prevent those who sought to make war from carrying out their aims. — Clive Howard
