"Fearlessness presupposes calmness and peace of mind...." - Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

“I learnt the lesson on nonviolence from my wife, when I tried to bend her to my will. Her determined resistance to my will on the one hand, and her quiet submission to the suffering my stupidity involved on the other, ultimately made me ashamed of myself and cured me of my stupidity in thinking that I was born to rule over her.”

“Nonviolence is the rock on which the whole structure of non-co-operation is built.”

“I claim to be no more than an average man with below average capabilities.”

“Be a hero. Always say, 'I have no fear.' Tell this to everyone - 'Have no fear.'”

“The higher man is distinguished from the lower by his fearlessness and his readiness to challenge misfortune.”

“Be brave! Be strong! Be fearless! Once you have taken up the spiritual fife, fight! Fight as long as there is any life in you! Even though you know that you are going to be killed, fight till you are killed! Don't die of fright! Die fighting! Don't go down till you are knocked down.”

“Civil disobedience and excitement and intoxication go ill together.”

“The pursuit, even of the best things, ought to be calm and tranquil.”

“The man who becomes angry never does a great amount of work, and the man whom nothing can make angry accomplishes so much.”
