Quotations From Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948)
Justice
- What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitariansim or the holy name of liberty or democracy?
- An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
- When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways 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.
- I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.
- Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary.
- In matters of conscience, the law of majority has no place.
Wisdom
- Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth.
- Honest differences are often a healthy sign of progress.
- 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.
- Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
- 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.
- Hate the sin, love the sinner.
- It is the quality of our work which will please God and not the quantity.
Courage
- I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill.
- One needs to be slow to form convictions, but once formed they must be defended against the heaviest odds.
- You must be the change you want to see in the world.
Temperance (Moderation)
- Indolence is a delightful but distressing state; we must be doing something to be happy.
- Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.
- There is more to life than increasing its speed.

"It is a mistake to try to look too far ahead. The chain of destiny can only be grasped one link at a time." – Winston Churchill
It is not about how you feel, it is what you believe...and, Still, it is what it is... |

Brian Tracy Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals, and values are in balance.

I met Brian Tracey. he has a killer handshake.
