More quotes by 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

But I never again went through this street. There would be other men coming in this man's place and, ignorant of the incident, they would behave likewise. Why should I unnecessarily court another kick? I therefore selected a different walk.
Mahatma Gandhi
A mind not set on God is given to wandering and lacks the quality of a temple of worship.
Mahatma Gandhi
God comes to the hungry in the form of food.
Mahatma Gandhi
If she [woman] is weak in striking, she is strong in suffering.
Mahatma Gandhi
Human language can but imperfectly describe God's ways.
Mahatma Gandhi
Though I cannot claim to be a Christian in the sectarian sense, the example of Jesus suffering is a factor in the composition of my undying faith in non-violence which rules all my actions, worldly and temporal.
Mahatma Gandhi
We don't use guns because we don't have guns
Mahatma Gandhi
