"Indeed the very word, nonviolence, a negative..." - Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

“Service without humility is selfishness and egotism.”

“In times to come people will not judge us by the creed we profess or the label we wear or the slogans we shout, but, by our work, industry, sacrifice, honesty and purity of character.”

“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.”

“Study men laying down their lives without hurting anyone else in the cause of their country's freedom.”

“A satyagrahi loves his so-called enemy even as he loves his friend. He has no enemy.”

“Humankind has to get out of violence only through non-violence. Hatred can be overcome only by love. Counter - hatred only increases the surface as well as the depth of hatred.”

“The only place where you could see life and death, i. e., violent death now that the wars were over, was in the bull ring and I wanted very much to go to Spain where I could study it. I was trying to learn to write, commencing with the simplest things, and one of the simplest things of all and the most fundamental is violent death.”

“I do believe that where there is a choice between cowardice and non-violence I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done, had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908, whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defended me, I told him that it was his duty to defend me even by using violence.”

“You ask what I have found and far and wide I go,Nothing but Cromwell's house and Cromwell's murderous crew,The lovers and the dancers are beaten into the clay,And the tall men and the swordsmen and the horsemen where are they?”
