Mahatma Gandhi Quotes about Fear

  • Power is of two kinds: one is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love.
  • Fear gone, there can be no hatred.
  • Fear of death makes us devoid both of valour and religion. For want of valour is want of religious faith.
  • ....service can have no meaning unless one takes pleasure in it. When it is done for show or for fear of public opinion, it stunts the man and crushes his spirit. Service which is rendered without joy helps neither the servant nor the served.
