Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violence ... is the only thing that the atom bomb cannot destroy. I did not move a muscle when I first heard that the atom bomb had wiped out Hiroshima. On the contrary, I said to myself, Unless now the world adopts non-violence, it will spell certain suicide for mankind.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolent non-co-operation with evil means co-operation with all that is good.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing in the Shastras, which is capable of being reasoned, can stand if it is in conflict with reason.

Mahatma Gandhi
I believe in the absolute oneness of God and therefore of humanity. What though we have many bodies? We have but one soul. . . . I know God is neither in heaven nor down below, but in everyone.
Mahatma Gandhi
I have found by experience that man makes his plans to be upset by God, but, at the same time, where the ultimate goal is the search of truth, on matter how a man's plans are frustrated the issue is never injurious and often better than anticipated.
Mahatma Gandhi
