The khadi spirit means also an infinite patience.

Nearly everything you do is of no importance, but it is important that you do it.

Peace will not come out of a clash of arms but out of justice lived and done by unarmed nations in the face of odds.

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