Non-cooperation is beyond the reach of the bayonet. It has found an abiding place in the Indian heart. Workers like me will go when the hour has struck, but non-cooperation will remain.

I do not regard capital to be the enemy of labour.

I should wish to die if a man who is impure should parade his purity in front of me.

Imperfect men have no right to judge other imperfect men.

Renunciation is the central sun, round which devotion, knowledge and the rest revolve like planets.

My mission is to convert every Indian, every Englishman and finally the world to nonviolence for regulating mutual relations, whether political, economic, social or religious.

Nonviolence is the summit of bravery.
