You are no Satyagrahi if you remain silent or passive spectators while your enemy is being done to death.

What can be richer and more fruitful than a greater fulfillment of the vow of nonviolence in thought, word and deed or the spread of that spirit?

A nonviolent struggle necessarily involves construction on a small scale. It cannot therefore lead to tamas or darkness or inertia.

I refuse to put the unnecessary strain of learning English upon my sisters for the sake of false pride or questionable social advantage.

I came alone in this world, I have walked alone in the valley of the shadow of death, and I shall quit alone when the time comes.

Truth stands for the fact, nonviolence negates the fact.

Many people, especially ignorant people, want to punish you for speaking the truth, for being correct, for being you. Never apologize for being correct, or for being years ahead of your time. If you’re right and you know it, speak your mind. Speak your mind. Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is still the truth.
