The spinning wheel for us is the foundation for all public corporate life.

Nonviolence is an unchangeable creed.

Satyagraha and civil disobedience and fasts have nothing in common with the use of force, veiled or open.

In the midst of death life persists, in the midst of untruth, truth persists, in the midst of darkness light persists.

Nonviolence is the law of our species as violence is the law of the brute. The spirit lies dormant in the brute, and he knows no law but that of physical might. The dignity of man requires obedience to a higher laws - to the strength of the spirit.

I cannot be subservient anywhere.

I would rather have India without education, if that is the price to be paid for making it dry.
