Mahatma Gandhi famous Quotes and Slogans

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, known as MK Gandhi, is revered as the father of India. Gandhi played a pivotal role in gaining freedom for India from the oppressive British rule with his fitting leadership of the freedom struggle in India.

A strong advocate of Satya (Truth) and Ahimsa (non-violence), Gandhi showed the power of love and non-violence in combating injustice and oppression. Mahatma is the title given to an inspiring personality who led the masses with his optimism, courage, principles, and practices.

Gandhi was born in Porbandar, also known as Sudamapuri, in Gujarat on October 2, 1869. His birthday is celebrated every year on October 2 as Gandhi Jayanti. While we celebrate Mahatma Gandhi’s birthday this year, here are a few inspiring quotes from the leader who is revered not only by Indians, but the world over.

Mahatma Gandhi’s famous quotes

  • “If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. We need not wait to see what others do.”

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

    • “Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”
  • “We may never be strong enough to be entirely nonviolent in thought, word and deed. But we must keep nonviolence as our goal and make strong progress towards it.”
  • “Change yourself – you are in control.”
  • “When restraint and courtesy are added to strength, the latter becomes irresistible.”
  • “The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.”
  • “If I had no sense of humor, I would long ago have committed suicide.”
  • “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.”
  • “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.”

Mahatma Gandhi on the importance of hard work

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

Mahatma Gandhi on women empowerment

  • “To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man’s injustice to woman. If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man’s superior”

  • “A ‘No’ uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a ‘Yes’ merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.”
  • “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.”
  • “I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.”
  • “An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.”
  • “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.”
