A Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

Swaraj as conceived by me does not mean the end of kingship. — © Mahatma Gandhi
Swaraj as conceived by me does not mean the end of kingship.
In one sense it is evident that the art of kingship does include the art of lawmaking. But the political ideal is not full authority for laws but rather full authority for a man who understands the art of kingship and has kingly ability.
And speaking of sex, the Immaculate Conception does not mean Jesus was conceived in the absence of sex. It means Mary was conceived without Original Sin. That's all it has ever meant. And according to the tabloids, Mary is apparently the only one who can make such a claim. The Jesus thing is called virgin birth.
Does one's integrity ever lie in what he is not able to do? I think that usually it does, for free will does not mean one will, but many wills conflicting in one man. Freedom cannot be conceived simply. It is a mystery and one which a novel, even a comic novel, can only be asked to deepen.
Swaraj of a people means the sum total of the Swaraj (self-rule) of individuals.
Swaraj is not a product of excitement or intoxication. Swaraj will be the natural and inevitable result of business like habits.
Lovers of Swaraj cannot rest till a solution is found which would allay Mussalman apprehensions and yet not endanger Swaraj.
The Swaraj of my dream is the poor man's Swaraj.
...free will does not mean one will, but many wills conflicting in one man. Freedom cannot be conceived simply.
What does it mean to dance? What does it mean to commit a crime? What does it mean to be anxious? What does it mean to tell a joke? The great thing about the French is that they have thought about these subjects in a great variety of ways and are a very articulate people.
Is it possible to love so desperately that life is unbearable? I don't mean unrequited, I mean being in the love. In the midst of it and desperate. Because knowing it will end, because everything does. End.
Swaraj would be real Swaraj only when there would be no occasion for safeguarding any rights.
But questioning does not mean the end of loving, and loving does not mean the abnegation of intelligence
The right constitutions, three in number- kingship, aristocracy, and polity- and the deviations from these, likewise three in number - tyranny from kingship, oligarchy from aristocracy, democracy from polity.
I mean, at the end of the day, what the hell does it matter who I end up with if it can't be you?
It does mean, if this is the idea, the end of Britain as an independent European state...it means the end of a thousand years of history.
At the individual level Swaraj is vitally connected with the capacity for dispassionate self-assessment , ceaseless self purification and growing self-reliance.... It is Swaraj when we learn to rule ourselves
