I hold that without truth and nonviolence there can be nothing but destruction of humanity.

History supplied numerous instances to prove that brute force is as nothing before soul-force.

God gifted man with intellect so that he might know his Maker. Man abused it so that he might forget his Maker.

Of all the evils for which man has made himself responsible, none is so degrading, so shocking, or so brutal as his abuse of the better half of humanity; to me, the female sex is not the weaker sex.

The golden way is to be friends with the world and to regard the whole human family as one.

What is a man if he is not a thief who openly charges as much as he can for the goods he sells?

You cannot build nonviolence on a factory civilization, but it can be built on self-contained villages.
