| �An eye for an eye would make the whole world blind.
�Civilization is the encouragement of differences. Civilization thus becomes a synonym of democracy. Force, violence, pressure, or compulsion with a view to conformity, is both uncivilized and undemocratic.� �Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.� �Hate the sin and love the sinner.� �I have nothing new to teach the world. Truth and nonviolence are as old as the hills.� �I think it would be a great idea.� [when asked what he thought of Western Civilization] �In matters of conscience, the law of the majority has no place.� �Love never claims, it never gives; love never suffers, never resents, never revenges itself. Where there is love there is life; hatred leads to destruction.� �Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness... It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.� �That action alone is just that does not harm either party to a dispute.� �The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.� �The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problems.� �The future depends on what we do in the present.� �The outward freedom that we shall attain will only be in exact proportion to the inward freedom to which we may have grown at a given moment. And if this is a correct view of freedom, our chief energy must be concentrated on achieving reform from within.� |
