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

The call of the spinning wheel is the noblest of all. Because it is the call of love. And love is Swaraj.

God gifted man with intellect so that he might know his Maker. Man abused it so that he might forget his Maker.

There is no yajna (sacrifice) greater than spinning calculated to bring peace to the troubled spirit, to soothe the distracted student's mind, to spiritualize his life.

Hinduism has sinned in giving sanction to untouchability.

You cannot neglect the nearer duty for the sake of a remote.

If India adopted the doctrine of love as an active part of her religion and introduced it in her politics. Swaraj would descend upon India from heaven. But I am painfully aware that that event is far off as yet.
