I often used “passive resistance” and “satyagraha” as synonymous terms: but as the doctrine of satyagraha developed, the expression “passive resistance” ceases even to be synonymous, as passive resistance has admitted of violence as in the case of the suffragettes and has been universally acknowledged to be a weapon of the weak.
Jag använder ofta "passivt motstånd" och "Satyagraha" som synonyma termer, men sedan doktrinen Satyagraha utvecklats, upphör uttrycket "passivt motstånd" att vara synonymt, som passivt motstånd har erkänt våld som i fallet med suffragetterna, som har varit allmänt känd för att vara ett vapen av den svaga.
