"The nation's non-co-operation is an invitation to..." - Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

“Man has reason, discrimination and free-will such as it is. The brute has no such thing. It is not a free agent, and knows no distinction between virtue and vice, good and evil. Man, being a free agent, knows these distinctions, and when he follows his higher nature, shows himself far superior to the brute, but when he follows his baser nature can show himself lower than the brute.”

“Sorrow and suffering make for character if they are voluntarily borne, but not if they are imposed.”

“Means to be means must always be within our reach, and so ahimsa is our supreme duty.”

“I isolate this non-co-operation from Sinn Feinism, for it is so conceived as to be incapable of being offered side by side with violence.”

“My modesty has prevented me from declaring from the house top that the message of non-co-operation, nonviolence and swadeshi is a message to the world.”

“I invite even the school of violence to give this peaceful non-co-operation a trial.”

“Russia is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.”

“Unite for the public safety, if you would remain an independent nation.”

“While the nation that has dared to be great, that has had the will and the power to change the destiny of the ages, in the end must die, yet no less surely the nation that has played the part of the weakling must also die; and whereas the nation that has done nothing leaves nothing behind it, the nation that has done a great work really continues, though in changed form, to live forevermore.”
