What I call the law of satyagraha is to be deduced from an appreciation of duties and rights flowing therefrom.

Increase of material comforts, it may be generally laid down, does not in any way whatsoever conduce to moral growth.

That which looks for mercy from an opponent is not non-violence.

My ahimsa is my own. I am not able to accept in its entirety the doctrine of non-killing of animals.

Non-cooperation with tyrants is a duty.

Civil disobedience means capacity for unlimited suffering, without the intoxicating excitement of killing.

It is for you and me to show that no vice is inherent in man.
