It is my conviction that the root of evil is the want of a living God.

The man who fears man falls from the estate of man. Fear God alone.

Don't talk about it. The rose doesn't have to propagate its perfume. It just gives it forth, and people are drawn to it. Live it, and people will come to see the source of your power.

The only praise I would like and treasure is the promotion of the activities to which my life is dedicated.

In battling against untouchability, and in dedicating myself to that battle, I have no less an ambition than to see a full regeneration of humanity.
