My mission is to convert every Indian, every Englishman and finally the world to nonviolence for regulating mutual relations, whether political, economic, social or religious.

I would rather drown myself in the waters of the Sabarmati than harbour hate or animosity in my heart.

Complete civil disobedience is a state of peaceful rebellion, a refusal to obey every single state-made law.

What does it matter that we take different roads so long as we reach the same goal?

Personally, I hold that a man, who deliberately and intelligently takes a pledge and then breaks it, forfeits his manhood.

The human body is meant solely for service, never for indulgence.

Carrying arms for the removal of the Arms Act can never fall under any scheme of nonviolence.
