There can be no nonviolence offered by the militarily strong.

Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest. If we want the Arms Act to be repealed, if we want to learn the use of arms, here is a golden opportunity. If the middle classes render voluntary help to Government in the hour of its trial, distrust will disappear, and the ban on possessing arms will be withdrawn.

Hinduism with its message of ahimsa is to me the most glorious religion in the world.

Peace will not come out of a clash of arms but out of justice lived and done by unarmed nations in the face of odds.

What the two hands of the labourer can achieve, the capitalist will never get with all his gold and silver.

The spinning wheel is a symbol of nonviolence for me.

Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory.
