There is no such thing as compulsion in the scheme of nonviolence.

A life of sacrifice is the pinnacle of art, and is full of true joy.

Mere mental, that is, intellectual labour, is for the soul and has its own satisfaction.

Swaraj is our birthright. No one can deprive us of it unless we forfeit it ourselves.

My experience teaches me that truth can never be propagated by doing violence.

The whole world is in the throes of a new birth. Anything done for a temporary gain would be tantamount to an abortion.

Naked violence repels like the naked skeleton shorn of flesh, blood and the velvety skin.
