Peace Quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
"Nonviolence is not a garment to be put on and off at will. Its seat is in the heart, and it must be an inseparable part of our being."
"We may never be stong enough to be entirely nonviolent in thought , word and deed. But we must keep nonviolence as our goal and make strong progress towards it. The attainment of freedon, whether for a person, a nation or a world, must be in exact proportion to the attainment of nonviolence for each.
I object to violence because when it apprears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.
