Mahatma Gandhi
Non-violent resistance implies the very opposite of weakness. Defiance combined with non-retaliatory acceptance of repression from one's opponents is active, not passive. It requires strength, and there is nothing automatic or intuitive about the resoluteness required for using non-violent methods in political struggle and the quest for Truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph: a beginning, a struggle, and a victory.
Mahatma Gandhi
God gifted man with intellect so that he might know his Maker. Man abused it so that he might forget his Maker.
Mahatma Gandhi
A full and candid admission of one's mistakes should make proof against its repetition.
Mahatma Gandhi
Let the Gita be to you a mine of diamonds, as it has been to me let it be your constant guide and friend on life's way.
Mahatma Gandhi
Cowards can never be moral.
Mahatma Gandhi
