•    I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.

•    It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.

•    One needs to be slow to form convictions, but once formed they must be defended against the heaviest odds.

•    Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.

•    You must be the change you want to see in the world.

•    You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

•    An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.

•    Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary.

•    Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.

•    As long as you derive inner help and comfort from anything, keep it.
