You cannot build nonviolence on a factory civilization, but it can be built on self-contained villages.

The golden rule to apply in all such cases is resolutely to refuse to have what millions cannot.

It is a crime and a sin to regard a person as untouchable because he is born in a particular community.

Nonviolence is the virtue of the manly. The coward is innocent of it.

Man falls from the pursuit of the ideal of plan living and high thinking the moment he wants to multiply his daily wants. Man's happiness really lies in contentment.

Nonviolence is an active force of the highest order. It is soul force or the power of the godhead within us.

I have also seen children successfully surmounting the effects of an evil inheritance. That is due to purity being an inherent attribute of the soul.
