The Charkha is an outward symbol of truth and nonviolence.

I cannot imagine anything nobler or more national than that for, say, one hour in the day we should all do the labor the poor must do, and thus identify ourselves with them and through them, with all mankind.

We want freedom for our country, but not at the expense or exploitation of others, not so as to degrade other countries.

There would be nothing to frighten you if you refused to be afraid.

They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.

My implicit faith in nonviolence does mean yielding to minorities when they are really weak.

Study men laying down their lives without hurting anyone else in the cause of their country's freedom.
