Boycott brought about anyhow of British cloth cannot yield the same results as such boycott brought about by hand-spinning and khaddar.
Mahatma Gandhi
Democracy disciplined and enlightened is the finest thing in the world. A democracy prejudiced, ignorant, superstitious, will land itself in chaos and may be self-destroyed.
Mahatma Gandhi
The force of nonviolence is infinitely more wonderful and subtle than the material forces of nature, like electricity.

Once Jesus had blazed the trail, his twelve disciples could carry on his mission without his presence.
