Events that have happened during the past month have confirmed me in the opinion that the Imperial Government have acted in the Khilafat matter in an unscrupulous, immoral and unjust manner and have been moving from wrong to wrong in order to defend their immorality. I can retain neither respect nor affection for such a Government. The attitude of the Imperial and Your Excellency's Governments on the Punjab question has given me additional cause for grave dissatisfaction.

Be the change that you want to see

Truth (satya) is positive, nonviolence is negative.

We may never be strong enough to be entirely non-violent in thought, word and deed. But we must keep non-violence as our goal and make steady progress towards it.

As the State is a soulless machine, it can never be weaned from violence to which it owes its very existence.

Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.

Nature can provide for the needs of people; [she] can't provide for the greed of people.
