I believe that religious education must be the sole concern of religious associations.

My faith in truth and nonviolence is ever growing, and as I am ever trying to follow them in my life, I too am growing every moment.

Non-violence is not a quality to be evolved or expressed to order. It is an inward growth depending for sustenance upon intense individual effort.

All my actions have their rise in my inalienable love of mankind.

What distinguishes man from the brute is his conscious striving to realise the spirit within.

My national service is part of my training for freeing my soul from the bondage of the flesh.

Experience gained in two schools under my control has taught me that punishment does not purify, if anything, it hardens children.
