Quote by Mahatma Gandhi
My nonviolence does not admit of running away from danger and leav

My nonviolence does not admit of running away from danger and leaving dear ones unprotected. Between violence and cowardly flight, I can only prefer violence to cowardice. I can no more preach nonviolence to a coward than I can tempt a blind man to enjoy healthy scenes. – Mahatma Gandhi
