Without Action, You Aren't Going Anywhere.

Exploitation Of The Poor Can Be Extinguished Not By Effecting The Destruction Of A Few Millionaires, But By Removing The Ignorance Of The Poor And Teaching Them To Non-cooperate With Their Exploiters.

Man's Triumph Will Consist In Substituting The Struggle For Existence By A Struggle For Mutual Service.

Nirvana Is The Utter Extinction Of All That Is Base In Us, All That Is Vicious In Us. Nirvana Is Not Like The Black, Dead Peace Of The Grave, But The Living Peace, The Living Happiness Of A Soul Which Is Conscious Of Itself And Conscious Of Having Found Its Own Abode In The Heart Of The Eternal.

I Cannot Give Active Support In The War Effort Without Denying A Life-time Of Practice.

My Optimism Rests On My Belief In The Infinite Possibilities Of The Individual To Develop Nonviolence. . . . In A Gentle Way You Can Shake The World.
