Hinduism is a living organism. One and indivisible at the root, it has grown into a vast tree with innumerable branches. Knowledge is limitless and so also the application of truth. Everyday we add to our knowledge of the power of Atman (soul) and we shall keep on doing so.

God is conscience. He is even the atheism of the atheist.

Fearlessness presupposes calmness and peace of mind.

We do want to drive out the beast in man, but we do not want on that account to emasculate him.

I want India to come into her own and that state cannot be better defined by any single word than Swaraj.

Just as one must learn the art of killing in the training for violence, so one must learn the art of dying in the training for non-violence. Violence does not mean the emancipation from fear, but discovering the means of combating the cause of fear. Nonviolence, on the other hand, has no cause for fear. The votary of nonviolence has to cultivate the capacity for sacrifice of the highest type in order to be free from fear. He recks not if he should lose his land, his wealth, his life.

No one can ride on the back of a man unless it is bent.
