Nonviolence and truth are inseperable and presuppose one another.

I look only to the good qualities of men. Not being faultless myself, I won’t presume to probe into the fault of others.

Ill-digested principles are, if anything, worse than ill-digested food, for the latter harms the body and there is cure for it, whereas the former ruins the soul and there is no cure for it.

There is no school equal to a decent home and no teacher equal to a virtuous parent.

In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.

Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s needs, but not every man’s greed.

The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world’s problems.

Speak if it only improves upon the silence.

The best find yourelf is in the service of others.

I have known many meat eaters to be far more nonviolent than vegetarians.
