More quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
No religion taught man to kill fellowmen because he held different opinions or was of another religion.
Mahatma Gandhi
Hitler killed five million Jews. It is the greatest crime of our time. But the Jews should have offered themselves to the butcher's knife. They should have thrown themselves into the sea from cliffs. As it is, they succumbed anyway in their millions.

Mahatma Gandhi
When restraint and courtesy are added to strength, the latter becomes irresistible.
Mahatma Gandhi
It has often occurred to me that a seeker after truth has to be silent.
Mahatma Gandhi
God is certainly one. He has no second. He is unfathomable, unknowable and unknown to the vast majority of mankind.
Mahatma Gandhi
The idol in the temple is not God. But since God resides in every atom, He resides in that idol too.
Mahatma Gandhi
Experience convinces me that permanent good can never be the outcome of untruth & violence. Even if my belief is a fond delusion, it will be admitted that it is a fascinating delusion.
Mahatma Gandhi
