No culture can live if it attempts to be exclusive.

Cow-slaughter and man-slaughter are in my opinion two sides of the same coin.

Let the Gita be to you a mine of diamonds, as it has been to me; let it be your constant guide and friend on life's way.

Khadi has been conceived as the foundation and the image of ahimsa. A real khadi-wearer will not utter an untruth. A real khadi-wearer will harbour no violence, no deceit, no impurity.

Truth, purity, self-control, firmness, fearlessness, humility, unity, peace, and renunciation - these are the inherent qualities of a civil resister.

Fearlessness presupposes calmness and peace of mind.

Ahimsa is the highest duty. Even if we cannot practice it in full, we must try to understand its spirit and refrain as far as is humanly possible from violence.
