I believe that the civilization India evolved is not to be beaten in the world. Nothing can equal the seeds sown by our ancestors, Rome went, Greece shared the same fate; the might of the Pharaohs was broken; Japan has become Westernized; of China nothing can be said; but India is still, somehow or other, sound at the foundation.

I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet.

The path is the goal.

By noiselessly going to a prison a civil-resister ensures a calm atmosphere.

I do all the evil I can before I learn to shun it? Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it up.

A nation that is unfit to fight cannot, from experience, prove the virtue of not fighting.

Yet even differences prove helpful, where there are tolerance, charity and Truth.
