One step of reconciliation, one step of bridge-building, one honest attempt to restore a divided relationship – and terrorism, extremism, receive a blow.

So long as our hearts are like that, rejoicing at the suffering of some people and pained at the suffering of others, we have to say to ourselves, 'My God, please do something to my heart.'

We judge ourselves by our ideals, but we judge the other side by their deeds.

Find modern ways for doing nonviolence. If you are willing to suffer but not inflict suffering, that’s very powerful.

The realization that the subcontinent was overflowing with the sort of ill-will I had entertained got me thinking...

Everybody can make obedience to conscience their goal. It can be a common goal that we all share.

If we demand rights and equality only for our group and not for all, they are no longer principles but just a political platform.

We have to allow our pain to give us greater love for others, greater understanding of their pain.

We are all the same underneath. There is something of the enemy in us and there is something of us in the enemy.

When we listen to the inner voice, some suggestions can come to us on what we can do. When leaders and led are connected to the inner voice, they are connected to one another.

Imperialism has no colour. Violence has no colour. Corruption has no colour.

Listening leads to dialogue and dialogue leads to partnership.
