To forgive is not to forget. The merit lies in loving in spite of the vivid knowledge that one that must be loved is not a friend. There is not merit in loving an enemy when you forget him for a friend. Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi quote: "Whenever you are confronted with an opponent. Conquer him with..."
Whenever you are confronted with an opponent. Conquer him with love. Mahatma Gandhi
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. Will he gain anything by it? Will it restore him to a control over his own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to swaraj for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Mahatma Gandhi
To deprive a man of his natural liberty and to deny to him the ordinary amenities of life is worse then starving the body; it is starvation of the soul, the dweller in the body. Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi quote: "If you don't find God in the next person you meet, it is a..."
If you don't find God in the next person you meet, it is a waste of time looking for him further. Mahatma Gandhi
Cowardice is impotence worse than violence. The coward desires revenge but being afraid to die, he looks to others, maybe to the government of the day, to do the work of defense for him. A coward is less than a man. He does not deserve to be a member of a society of men and women. Mahatma Gandhi
It is man's social nature which distinguishes him from the brute creation. If it is his privilege to be independent, it is equally his duty to be inter-dependent. Only an arrogant man will claim to be independent of everybody else and be self-contained. Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi quote: "Man lives freely only by his readiness to die, if need be, at..."
Man lives freely only by his readiness to die, if need be, at the hands of his brother, never by killing him. Mahatma Gandhi
A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so. Mahatma Gandhi
The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust. The world crushes the dust under its feet, but the seeker after truth should so humble himself that even the dust could crush him. Only then, and not till then, will he have a glimpse of truth. Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi quote: "My religion is based on truth and non-violence. Truth is my..."
My religion is based on truth and non-violence. Truth is my God. Non-violence is the means of realising Him. Mahatma Gandhi
Interdependence is and ought to be as much the ideal of man as self-sufficiency. Man is a social being. Without interrelation with society he cannot realize his oneness with the universe or suppress his egotism. His social interdependence enables him to test his faith and to prove himself on the touchstone of reality. Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi quote: "My effort should never be to undermine another's faith but to..."
My effort should never be to undermine another's faith but to make him a better follower of his own faith. Mahatma Gandhi
But you can wake a man only if he is really asleep. No effort that you make will produce any effect upon him if he is merely pretending sleep. Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi quote: "I call him religious who understands the suffering of others."
I call him religious who understands the suffering of others. Mahatma Gandhi
