Cowardice is impotence worse than violence. The coward desires revenge but being afraid to die, he looks to others, maybe to the government of the day, to do the work of defense for him. A coward is less than a man. He does not deserve to be a member of a society of men and women.

A man who throws himself on God ceases to fear man

I must not refrain from saying that India can gain more by waiving the right of punishment.

Repression does for a true man or a nation what fire does for gold.

Non-co-operation in the political field is an extension of the doctrine as it is practised in the domestic field.

Without action, you aren't going anywhere.

I do not want India to rise on the ruin of other nations.
