My religion teaches me that whenever there is distress which one cannot remove, one must fast and pray.

It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence.

Purification is never for the selfishly idle, it accrues only to the selflessly industrious.

Temple going is for the purification of the soul.

We want freedom for our country, but not at the expense or exploitation of others, not so as to degrade other countries.

My opposition to the socialist and the other consists in attacking violence as a means of effecting any lasting reform.
