The nonviolence I teach is active nonviolence of the strongest. But the weakest can partake in it without becoming weaker.

If we all discharge our duties, rights will not be far to seek. If leaving duties unperformed we run after rights, they will escape us like a will-o'-the-wisp.

All the dry ethics of the world turn to dust because apart from God they are lifeless.

There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.

Those who are lacking in bhakti (devotion), lacking in faith, are ill qualified to interpret the scriptures.

A leader is useless when he acts against the promptings of his own conscience.

It will profit you nothing to remember old wrongs and nurse old enmities.
