The removal of untouchability is a question of the purification of Hinduism.

Poverty is the worst form of violence.

I have been repeating over and over again that he who cannot protect himself or his nearest and dearest or their honour by non-violently facing death may and ought to do so by violently dealing with the oppressor. He who can do neither of the two is a burden. He has no business to be the head of a family. He must either hide himself, or must rest content to live for ever in helplessness and be prepared to crawl like a worm at the bidding of a bully.

We may not go about parroting truth and nonviolence and steering clear of them in our daily life.

Rationalists are admirable beings, rationalism is a hideous monster when it claims for itself omnipotence. Attribution of omnipotence to reason is as bad a piece of idolatry as is worship of stock and stone believing it to be God.

Let India become alive by self-purification, that is self-restraint and self-denial, and she will be a boon to herself and mankind.

The man or the woman who can display the nonviolence of the brave can easily stand against as external invasion.
