Words of Wisdom and Inspiration
by Mahatma Gandhi

Gandhiji and His Wife (1938)

Selections from his writings . . .


   "There should be no occasion where a woman considers herself subordinate or inferior to man . . . woman is the companion of man, gifted with equal mental capacity."

 "Often in my progress I have had faint glimpes of the Absolute Truth, God; and daily the conviction is growing upon me thet He is real and all else is unreal."

 "I know that I can do nothing. God can do everything. O God, make me Thy fit instrument and use me as Thou wilt!."

 "I am endeavoring to see God through service to humanity, for I know that God is neither in heaven, nor down below, but in everyone."

 "Let everyone try and find out that as a result of daily prayer he adds something new to his life, something with which nothing else can be compared."

 "The rays of the sun are many through refraction. But they have the same source. I cannot, therefore, detach myself from the wickedest soul (nor may I be denied identity with the most virtuous)."
