23 " Violence begins with the fork. "
24 " Truth never damages a cause that is just. "

30 " In fact, it is more correct to say that Truth is God, than to say that God is Truth. "
31 " There's no God higher than truth. "

33 " Let the first act of every morning be to make the following resolve for the day:- I shall not fear anyone on Earth. - I shall fear only God. - I shall not bear ill will toward anyone. - I shall not submit to injustice from anyone. - I shall conquer untruth by truth. And in resisting untruth, I shall put up with all suffering. "
34 " There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread. "
35 " When every hope is gone, 'when helpers fail and comforts flee,' I find that help arrives somehow, from I know not where. Supplication, worship, prayer are no superstition; they are acts more real than the acts of eating, drinking, sitting or walking. It is no exaggeration to say that they alone are real, all else is unreal. "
36 " It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err. "
