Mahatma Gandhi
Indian - Leader
October 2, 1869 - January 30, 1948

Ahimsa is not mere negative non-injury. It is positive, cosmic love. It is the development of a mental attitude in which hatred is replaced by love. Ahimsa is true sacrifice. Ahimsa is forgiveness. Ahimsa is Sakti (power). Ahimsa is true strength.

Sivananda

True ahimsa should wear a smile even on a deathbed brought about by an assailant. It is only with that ahimsa that we can befriend our opponents and win their love.

Mahatma Gandhi

In an atmosphere of ahimsa, one has no scope to put his ahimsa to the test. It can be tested only in the face of himsa.

Mahatma Gandhi

Ahimsa is an attribute of the brave. Cowardice and ahimsa don't go together any more that water and fire.

Mahatma Gandhi

Love and sacrifice are not the same thing, but they are inseparable. To think of Christ and to think of the Cross is not the same thing, but the association is so close that the implication is immediate. Where love has been preached without sacrifice, it has not led to love but to license.

Mahatma Gandhi

Love, otherwise ahimsa, sustains this planet of ours.

Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi was a man of peace and non-violence and lived by the Hindu principle of ahimsa, action based on refusal to do harm. As his war-strewn presidency shows, George Bush knows nothing about ahimsa and non-violence. Bush should reconsider this cynical, disrespectful display of symbolism.

Kevin Martin

Love in the sense of ahimsa has only a limited number of votaries in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi

Like the rabid fans of sports, the same goes for fans and their actors, TV shows and movies. You love what you love, and it bonds you with others who love the same thing.

Kristoffer Polaha

For me the only certain means of knowing God is nonviolence, ahimsa, love.

Mahatma Gandhi

I love wearing the exact same thing all the time because I think it makes you like a cartoon character. They always wear the same outfit and everybody always remembers them for it, so I feel like I should do the same thing.
