Measures must always in a progressive society be held superior to men, who are after all imperfect instruments, working for their fulfilment.

The Charkha in the hands of a poor widow brings a paltry price to her, in the hands of Jawaharlal; it is an instrument of India's freedom.

It amazes me to find an intelligent person who fights against something which he does not at all believe exists.

A person is bound to work in obedience to and in conformity to that person's own nature.

There is no one without faults, not even men of God. They are men of God not because they are faultless, but because they know their faults, they strive against them, they do not hide them, and are ever ready to correct themselves.

It is better to allow our lives to speak for us than our words. God did not bear the cross only two thousand years ago. He bears it today, and he dies and is resurrected from day to day. It would be a poor comfort to the world if it had to depend on a historical God who died two thousand years ago. Do not, then, preach the God of history, but show him as he lives today through you.

You may think your actions are meaningless and that they won't help, but that is no excuse, you must still act.
