Mahatma Gandhi
Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whilst the Bihar calamity damages the body, the calamity brought about by untouchability corrodes the very soul.
Mahatma Gandhi
The hater hates not for the sake of hatred but because he wants to drive away from his country the hated being or beings.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence in the sense of mere non-killing does not appear to me, therefore, to be of any improvement on the technique of violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
It is as much our obligation not to cooperate with evil as it is to cooperate with good
Mahatma Gandhi
