Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.

More quotes by Jawaharlal Nehru

Jawaharlal Nehru

Jawaharlal Nehru
Peace is not merely an absence of war. It is also a state of mind.

Jawaharlal Nehru
Restraint does not mean weakness. It does not mean giving in.
Jawaharlal Nehru
All the nations and peoples are too closely knit together today for any one of them to imagine that it can live apart. Peace has been said to be indivisible, so is freedom, so is prosperity now, and so also is disaster in this one world that can no longer be split into isolated fragments.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Democracy is good. I say this because other systems are worse.
Jawaharlal Nehru
There is perhaps nothing so bad and so dangerous in life as fear.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit. It is never a narrowing of the mind or a restriction of the human spirit or the country's spirit.
Jawaharlal Nehru
The light has gone out of our lives and there is darkness everywhere following Gandhi's assassination.
Jawaharlal Nehru
The Bhagavad Gita deals essentially with the spiritual foundation of human existence. It is a call of action to meet the obligations and duties of life yet keeping in view the spiritual nature and grander purpose of the universe.
Jawaharlal Nehru
I wish that more and more adventurous young men would give up the gun in favour of the camera.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Poverty anywhere is a danger to prosperity everywhere
Jawaharlal Nehru
When you imitate the enemy's tactics, you take on his liabilities.
Jawaharlal Nehru
We end today a period of ill fortune and India discovers herself again. The achievement we celebrate today is but a step, an opening of opportunity, to the greater triumphs and achievements that await us. Are we brave enough and wise enough to grasp this opportunity and accept the challenge of the future?
Jawaharlal Nehru
