Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is not an easy thing to understand, still less to practice, weak as we are.
Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi
Indeed the very word, nonviolence, a negative word, means that it is an effort to abandon the violence that is inevitable in life.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is impossible without humility.
Mahatma Gandhi
That nonviolence which only an individual can use is not of much use in terms of society.
Mahatma Gandhi
