Satyagraha, of which civil resistance is but a part, is to me the universal law of life.

A truly nonviolent man would never live to tell the tale of atrocities. He would have laid down his life on the spot in non-violent resistance.

The power of nonviolent resistance can only come from honest working of the constructive programme.

History has no record of a nation having adopted nonviolent resistance.

The only true resistance to this Government... [is] to cease to co-operate with it.

Adaptability is not imitation. It means power of resistance and assimilation.
