Best Mahatma Gandhi Quotes

Here are my favorite Mahatma Gandhi quotes:

“The greatness of humanity is not in being human, but in being humane.”

“There is a sufficiency in the world for man’s need but not for man’s greed.”

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

“I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet.”

“Nobody can hurt me without my permission.”

“In a gentle way, you can shake the world.”

“It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.”

It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.

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

“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s needs, but not every man’s greed.”

“You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is like an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.”

“An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self sustained.”

“Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.”

“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”

“All the religions of the world, while they may differ in other respects, unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth.”

“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.”

“Anger is the enemy of non-violence and pride is a monster that swallows it up.”

“My religion is based on truth and non-violence. Truth is my God. Non-violence is the means of realising Him.”

“Man becomes great exactly in the degree in which he works for the welfare of his fellow-men.”

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”

“Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.”

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”

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

“Nonviolence is a weapon of the strong.”

“Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment.”

“Love is the strongest force the world possesses.”

“Where there is love there is life.”

“Peace is its own reward.”

“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it–always.”

“The future depends on what you do today.”

“Be the change you wish to see in the world.”

"Be the change you wish to see in the world." Mahatma Gandhi
