Jawaharlal Nehru

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
What is history, indeed, but a record of change?
Jawaharlal Nehru
When the present is full of gloom, the past becomes haven of refuge that provides relief and inspiration.
Jawaharlal Nehru
The purely agitational attitude is not good enough for a detailed consideration of a subject.
Jawaharlal Nehru
I have become a queer mixture of the East and the West, out of place everywhere, at home nowhere.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Every great revolution, whether it is right or not, we really know has any vital, urgent need to basis. It comes not just from itself.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Democracy and socialism are means to an end, not the end itself.
