Persuasion is achieved by the speaker's personal character when the speech is so spoken as to make us think him credible. We believe good men more fully and more readily than others: this is true generally whatever the question is, and absolutely true where exact certainty is impossible and opinions are divided.

It'll be all of our efforts together. It won't won't ever be exactly the way I imagined it. And that is, I think, an important lesson as well, is that in any group enterprise it's going to be the sum total of the group.

If something can corrupt you, you're corrupted already.

If you would be loved, love, and be loveable. 

I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.

The educated differ from the uneducated as much as the living from the dead.

Only free men can negotiate. A prisoner cannot enter into contracts.

Nay, do not grieve the' life be full of sadness, Dawn will not veil her splendour for your grief, Nor spring deny their bright, appointed beauty To lotus blossoms and Ashoka leaf.

A weak man is just by accident. A strong but non-violent man is unjust by accident.

I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.

My main concern is meeting with public because my main commitment, main interest is promotion of human values, human affection, compassion and religious harmony.

I can't pretend that I'm brave and that I can beat the whole world.
