Explanation

The matches are beauty as opinion, Gandhi's belief as fact, the maxim as advice, and car-owners as assumption.

'The sunset is beautiful' voices a personal judgement of value, an opinion.

'Gandhi believed in non-violence' records a verifiable historical fact.

'Just do it, do not tell' urges a course of action, so it is advice.

'Those who own a car are rich' takes an unstated link for granted, an assumption.
