Mahatma Gandhi Quotes:

Ocupation: Lawyer

Life: October 2, 1869 - January 30, 1948

Birthday: October 2

Death: January 30

The strength to kill is not essential for self-defense; one ought to have the strength to die. When a man is fully ready to die, he will not even desire to offer violence. Indeed, I may put it down as a self-evident proposition that the desire to kill is in inverse proportion to the desire to die. And history is replete with instances of men who by dying with courage and compassion on their lips converted the hearts of their violent opponents.
