Jawaharlal Nehru
The future belongs to science and those who make friends with science.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Science and technology have freed humanity from many burdens and given us this new perspective and great power. This power can be used for the good of all. If wisdom governs our actions but if the world is mad or foolish, it can destroy itself just when great advances and triumphs are almost without its grasp.
Jawaharlal Nehru
The forces in a capitalist society, if left unchecked, tend to make the rich richer and the poor poorer.
Jawaharlal Nehru
History is the record of human progress, a record of the struggle of the advancement of the human mind, of the human spirit, towards some known or unknown objective.
Jawaharlal Nehru
If the world suffers from mental deterioration or from moral degradation, then something goes wrong at the very root of civilization or culture. Even though that civilization may drag out for a considerable period, it grows less and less vital and ultimately tumbles down.
Jawaharlal Nehru
The policy of being too cautious is the greatest risk of all.
Jawaharlal Nehru
The purely agitational attitude is not good enough for a detailed consideration of a subject.
Jawaharlal Nehru
What we need is a generation of peace.
Jawaharlal Nehru
When the present is full of gloom, the past becomes haven of refuge that provides relief and inspiration.
Jawaharlal Nehru
