‘Your belief that there is no connection between the means and the end is a great mistake.’…
Believing this, he [Gandhi] held passionately to non-violence as the one means universally valid and applicable because it could never distort the end. It was in a sense the goal itself, the end sought for in action: it was truth acting through the courageous man who was prepared to follow it to his own cost.
Judith M. Brown, Gandhi: Prisoner of Hope, p.84
