Nonviolence is the first article of my faith. It is also the last article of my creed.

Whether one or many, I must declare my faith that it is better for India to discard violence altogether even for defending her borders

Non-violence which is a quality of the heart, cannot come by an appeal to the brain.

Force, violence, pressure, or compulsion with a view to conformity, are both uncivilized and undemocratic

However much I may sympathise with and admire worthy motives, I am an uncompromising opponent of violent methods even to serve the noblest of causes.
