In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth.

The nonviolence I teach is active nonviolence of the strongest. But the weakest can partake in it without becoming weaker.

In a plan of life based on nonviolence, woman has as much right to shape her own destiny as man has to shape his.

The earth has enough resources for our need, but not for our greed.

For me the present is merged in eternity. I may not sacrifice the latter for the present.

There is no god greater than truth.
