Action Is No Less Necessary Than Thought

I Do Believe That, Where There Is Only A Choice Between Cowardice And Violence, I Would Advise Violence. I Would Rather Have India Resort To Arms In Order To Defend Her Honour Than That She Should, In A Cowardly Manner, Become Or Remain A Helpless Witness To Her Own Dishonour. But I Believe That Nonviolence Is Infinitely Superior To Violence, Forgiveness Is More Manly Than Punishment.

My Hinduism Must Be A Very Poor Thing If It Cannot Flourish Even Under The Most Adverse Influence.

Happiness, The Goal To Which We All Are Striving Is Reached By Endeavoring To Make The Lives Of Others Happy, And If By Renouncing The Luxuries Of Life We Can Lighten The Burdens Of Others.... Surely The Simplification Of Our Wants Is A Thing Greatly To Be Desired! And So, If Instead Of Supposing That We Must Become Hermits And Dwellers In Caves In Order To Practice Simplicity, We Set About Simplifying Our Affairs, Each According To His Own Convictions And Opportunity, Much Good Will Result And The Simple Life Will At Once Be Established.

The Central Fact Of Hinduism Is Cow Protection.
