1 " ارسطو ميگويد همه چيز، بارها و بارها كشف شده و از ياد رفته است. او به ما اطمينان خاطر ميدهد كه پيشرفت يك توهم است؛ امور انسان مانند درياست كه در سطح خود هزاران حركت و آشفتگي دارد و چنين به نظر مي رسد كه به سوي جايي پيش مي رود، در حالي كه در تهِ خود بالنسبه بي تغيير و آرام است. آنچه ما آن را پيشرفت مي خوانيم شايد فقط تغييرات سطحي محض باشد؛ توالي اي از سبك ها و مدها در لباس، حمل و نقل، حكومت، روان شناسي و دين، علم مسيحي، رفتارگرايي، دموكراسي، اتومبيل و شلوار پيشرفت نيستند، آنها تغييرند؛ آنها راه هاي جديدي در انجام كارهاي قديمي اند، خطاهايي جديد در كوشش بيهوده براي فهم اسرار ابدي و ازلي. در زير اين پديده هاي متنوع، گوهر و ذات امور يكسان مي ماند.

3 " The whole thing [life] is a ‘Racket,’ so get a few laughs, do the best you can, take nothing serious, for nothing is certainly depending on this generation.

6 " Dear Friend, Your letter of 5th June…Now for your questions. 1.      Life for me is real as I believe it to be a spark of the Divine. 2.      Religion not in the conventional but in the broadest sense helps me to have a glimpse of the Divine essence. This glimpse is impossible without full development of the moral sense. Hence religion and morality are, for me, synonymous terms. 3. Striving for full realization keeps me going. 4.      This strife is the source of whatever inspiration and energy I possess. 5. The goal is already stated. 6.      My consolation and my happiness are to be found in service of all that lives, because the Divine essence is the sum total of all life. 7.      My treasure lies in battling against darkness and all forces of evil. You have asked me to write at leisure and at length if I can. Unfortunately I have no leisure and therefore writing at length is an impossibility. Yours sincerely, M.K. Gandhi "
