Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was an Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist and political ethicist who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India’s independence from British rule and in turn inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahātmā (Sanskrit: “great-souled”, “venerable”), first applied to him in 1914 in South Africa, is now used throughout the world. Here are some quotes by Mahatma Ghandi
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
A man is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes.
It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.
Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory.
Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory.
There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.
When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.
I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.
The main purpose of life is to live rightly, think rightly, act rightly. The soul must languish when we give all our thought to the body.
If patience is worth anything, it must endure to the end of time. And a living faith will last in the midst of the blackest storm.
The human voice can never reach the distance that is covered by the still small voice of conscience.
