I would far rather that Hinduism died than that untouchability lived.

How do you know if the next act you are about to do is the right one or the wrong one? Consider the face of the poorest and most vulnerable human being that you have ever chanced upon, and ask yourself if the act that you contemplate will be of benefit to that person; and if it will be, it's the right thing to do, and if not, rethink it.

India's way is not Europe's. India is not Calcutta and Bombay. India lives in her seven hundred thousand villages.

That nonviolence which only an individual can use is not of much use in terms of society.

I am just not thinking of India's deliverance. It will come, but will it be worth if England and France fall, or if they come out victorious over Germany ruined and humbled?

Man will ever remain imperfect, and it will always be his part to try to be perfect.

We shall make progress towards Swaraj only if we do everything thoughtfully and with understanding.
