Nonviolence means an ocean of compassion. It means shedding from us every trace of ill will for others. It does not mean abjectness or timidity, or fleeing in fear. It means, on the contrary, firmness of mind and courage, a resolute spirit.
Mahatma GandhiThe primary object of non-co-operation is nowhere stated to be paralysis of the Government. The primary object is self-purification.
