Every labourer is worthy of his hire. No country can produce thousands of unpaid whole-time workers.

This feeling of helplessness in us has arisen from our deliberate dismissal of God from our common affairs.

If anybody said that I should die if I did not take beef-tea or mutton, even under medical advice, I would prefer death.

Indeed the very word, nonviolence, a negative word, means that it is an effort to abandon the violence that is inevitable in life.

To me Truth is God and there is no way to find Truth except the way of nonviolence.

It is no non-violence if we merely love those that love us. It is non-violence only when we love those that hate us.

I claim to have been a lifelong and wholly disinterested friend of the British people.
