Religion is more than life. Remember that his own religion is the truest to every man even if it stands low in the scales of philosophical comparison.

A truly nonviolent man would never live to tell the tale of atrocities. He would have laid down his life on the spot in non-violent resistance.

Liberty never meant the license to do anything at will.

First they ignore you, then they denounce you, and then they say that they knew what you were saying all the time.

Truth never damages a cause that is just.

The science of war leads one to dictatorship, pure and simple. The science of non-violence alone can lead one to pure democracy. Power based on love is thousand times more effective and permanent than power derived from fear of punishment. It is a blasphemy to say non-violence can be practiced only by individuals and never by nations which are composed of individuals. The nearest approach to purest anarchy would be a democracy based on non-violence. A society organized and run on the basis of complete non-violence would be the purest anarchy.

If you give me rice, I'll eat today; if you teach me how to grow rice, I'll eat every day.
