Whilst I may not actually help anyone to retaliate, I must not let a coward seek shelter behind nonviolence so-called. Not knowing the stuff of which nonviolence is made, many have honestly believed that running away from danger every time was a virtue compared to offering resistance, especially when it was fraught with danger to one's life. As a teacher of nonviolence I must, so far as it is possible for me, guard against such an unmanly belief.
Mahatma GandhiIf you love peace, then hate injustice, hate tyranny, hate greed � but hate these things in yourself, not in another.
Mahatma GandhiNonviolence is not an easy thing to understand, still less to practice, weak as we are.
Mahatma GandhiIf it is by force that we wish to achieve Swaraj, let us drop nonviolence and offer such violence as we may.
