| Quotation | Points from Gandhi on non-cooperation (R. Rolland, Inde, p. 327) 1. To refuse military service when the time has come for it is to act after the time to combat. The evil has run out. Mil[itary] service is only a symptom of a deeper evil. All who support the state in other ways besides this are equally guilty. (I mean support a state organizing for war.) 2. All cooperation must be withdrawn from a state organizing for war. The precise way of going about it varies. Means refusal of privileges and advantages as well as of service. |
