The more I reflect and look back on the past, the more vividly do I feel my limitations.

Mahatma Gandhi

Past, Looks, Feels

Mahatma Gandhi, Judith M. Brown (2008). “The Essential Writings”, p.1, Oxford University Press

A man who has broken with his past feels a different man. He will not feel it a shame to confess his past wrongs, for the simple reason that these wrongs do not touch him at all.

Mahatma Gandhi

Past, Simple, Men

Mahatma Gandhi (1927). “Young India”

There is no one without faults, not even men of God. They are men of God not because they are faultless, but because they know their faults, they strive against them, they do not hide them, and are ever ready to correct themselves.

Mahatma Gandhi

Past, Men, Faults

Mahatma Gandhi, Mohandas Gandhi, Homer A. Jack (2005). “The Wit and Wisdom of Gandhi”, p.83, Courier Corporation

The goal ever recedes from us. The greater the progress the greater the recognition of our unworthiness. Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment. Full effort is full victory.

Mahatma Gandhi

Lying, Past, Goal

Mahatma Gandhi (1980). “All Men are Brothers: Autobiographical Reflections”, p.154, A&C Black

In my humble opinion, non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good. But in the past, non-cooperation has been deliberately expressed in violence to the evildoer. I am endeavoring to show my countrymen that violent non-cooperation only multiplies evil and that evil can only be sustained by violence. Withdrawal of support of evil requires complete abstention from violence. Non-violence implies voluntary submission to the penalty for non-cooperation with evil.

Mahatma Gandhi

Humble, Past, Evil

Courtroom statement, Ahmadabad, India, 23 Mar. 1922

I do not seek redemption from the consequences of my sin. I seek to be redeemed from sin itself. Until I have attained that end, I shall be content to be restless.

Mahatma Gandhi

Past, Redemption, Sin
