Even if masses of people were to burn khadi publicly and say that it is an insane programme, I will declare that those people have gone mad.

I have recognized that the nation has the right, if it so wills, to vindicate her freedom even by actual violence.

I do all the evil I can before I learn to shun it? Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it up.

Nonviolence is the means, the end for everyone is complete independence.

I believe in conversion of mankind, not its destruction.

What is true of the individual will be tomorrow true of the whole nation if individuals will but refuse to lose heart and hope.

No government on earth can make men, who have realized freedom in their hearts, salute against their will.
