Mahatma Gandhi
It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, rules us we would have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that the so-called civilised men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis of society was violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Satyagraha has been designed as an effective substitute for violence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whenever I see an erring man, I say to myself I have also erred when I see a lustful man I say to myself, so was I once and in this way I feel kinship with everyone in the world and feel that I cannot be happy without the humblest of us being happy.
Mahatma Gandhi
The function of violence is to obtain reform by external means, the function of passive resistance, that is, soul-force, is to obtain it by growth from within, which, in its turn, is obtained by self-suffering, self-purification.
Mahatma Gandhi
