Jawaharlal Nehru

Jawaharlal Nehru
In the name of religion many great and fine deeds have been performed. In the name of religion also, thousands and millions have been killed, and every possible crime has been committed.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Unity must be of the mind and heart, a sense of belonging together and of facing together those who attack it.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Restraint does not mean weakness. It does not mean giving in.

India cannot sit on the fence anymore. It may have to make a choice. Either way it is going face problems.
Jawaharlal Nehru
