In a nonviolent army, the general and the officers are elected, or are as if elected, when their authority is moral and rests solely on the willing obedience of the rank and file.
Mahatma Gandhi
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.
Mahatma Gandhi
The spinning wheel means national consciousness and a contribution by every individual to a definite constructive national work.
Mahatma Gandhi
People become what they expect themselves to become

In the characteristics of the perfected man of the Gita, I do not see any to correspond to physical warfare.
