If it is by force that we wish to achieve Swaraj, let us drop nonviolence and offer such violence as we may.
Mahatma GandhiHigh thinking is inconsistent with a complicated material life based on high speed and imposed on us by mammon worship.
Mahatma GandhiNonviolence is the law of our species as violence is the law of the brute. The spirit lies dormant in the brute, and he knows no law but that of physical might. The dignity of man requires obedience to a higher laws - to the strength of the spirit.
Mahatma GandhiMan often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
