Enter with me into the sufferings, not only of the people of India but of the whole world. Nonviolence is a more active and real fight against wickedness than retaliation whose very nature is to increase wickedness. It is not a weapon of the weak. It is a weapon of the strongest and bravest.

No country can become a nation by producing a race of imitators.

Our non-co-operation is with the system the English have established in India, with the material civilization and its attendant greed and exploitation of the weak.

The moment the slave resolves that he will no longer be a slave, his fetters fall. Freedom and slavery are mental states.

Without satyagraha carried out in the proper spirit, there is no victory, no Swaraj.

You may never know what results come of your actions, but if you do nothing, there will be no results.

God has enabled man to distinguish between his sister, his mother, his daughter and his wife.
