Any young man, who makes dowry a condition to marriage, discredits his education and his country and dishonours womanhood.

Nonviolence to be worth anything has to work in the face of hostile forces.

A nonviolent man cannot desire embarrassment.

Compulsory obedience to a master is a state of slavery, willing obedience to one's father is the glory of son ship.

I consider writing as a fine art. We kill it by imposing the alphabet on little children and making it the beginning of learning.

Learning takes us through many states of life, but it fails utterly in the hour of danger and temptation. Then faith alone saves.

Nothing can be more hurtful to an honourable man than that he should be accused of bad faith.
