Non-violence and cowardice are contradictory terms. Non-violence is the greatest virtue, cowardice the greatest vice. Non-violence springs from love, cowardice from hate. Non-violence always suffers, cowardice would always inflict suffering. Perfect non-violence is the highest bravery. Non-violent conduct is never demoralising; cowardice always is.
Mahatma GandhiIt is no non-violence if we merely love those that love us. It is non-violence only when we love those that hate us.
Mahatma GandhiClose the day with prayer so that you may have a peaceful night free from dreams and nightmares.
Mahatma GandhiI 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.
