Don't let anybody walk through your mind with dirty feet.

Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances.

If it is possible for the human tongue to give the fullest description of God, I have come to the conclusion that God is Truth.

There are two days in the year that we can not do anything, yesterday and tomorrow

Whilst I may not actually help anyone to retaliate, I must not let a coward seek shelter behind nonviolence so-called. Not knowing the stuff of which nonviolence is made, many have honestly believed that running away from danger every time was a virtue compared to offering resistance, especially when it was fraught with danger to one's life. As a teacher of nonviolence I must, so far as it is possible for me, guard against such an unmanly belief.

Just as one must learn the art of killing in the training for violence, so one must learn the art of dying in the training for non-violence. Violence does not mean the emancipation from fear, but discovering the means of combating the cause of fear. Nonviolence, on the other hand, has no cause for fear. The votary of nonviolence has to cultivate the capacity for sacrifice of the highest type in order to be free from fear. He recks not if he should lose his land, his wealth, his life.

Non-violence and truth are inseparable and presuppose one another.
