Inspirational Quotes from Famous People |
The ultimate
weakness of violence is that it is
a descending spiral; returning
violence with violence only
multiplies voilence, adding deeper
darkness to a night already devoid
of stars.
--Martin
Luther King, Jr. quotes
(American
Baptist Minister
and
Civil-Rights Leader.
1929-1968)
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 quotes
Non-violence
which is a quality of the heart,
cannot come by an appeal to the
brain.
--Mahatma Gandhi quotes (Indian
Philosopher,
internationally esteemed for his
doctrine of non-violent protest,
1869-1948)
