He who is ever brooding over result often loses nerve in the performance of his duty.

Civilization is that mode of conduct which points out to man the path of duty. Performance of duty and observance of morality are convertible terms. To observe morality is to attain mastery over our mind and our passions. So doing, we know ourselves.

Force that the performance of duty naturally generates is the non-violent and invincible force that satyagraha brings into being.

Without real nonviolence, there would be perfect anarchy.

Where love is, there God is also.

The cause of the spinning wheel is too great and too good to have to rest on mere hero-worship.

Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances.
