Let us be a little humble let us think that the truth may not perhaps be entirely with us.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
No country or people who are slaves to dogma and dogmatic mentality can progress.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Blood and tears are going to be our lot, whether we like them or not. Our blood and tears will flow maybe the parched soil of India needs them so that the fine flower of freedom may grow again.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Those who are prepared to die for any cause are seldom defeated.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Unity must be of the mind and heart, a sense of belonging together and of facing together those who attack it.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Our chief defect is that we are more given to talking about things than to doing them.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
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?

Slogans are apt to petrify man's thinking ... every slogan, every word almost, that is used by the socialist, the communist, the capitalist. People hardly think nowadays. They throwT words at each other.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Democracy is good. I say this because other systems are worse. So we are forced to accept democracy. It has good points and also bad. But merely saying that democracy will solve all problems is utterly wrong. Problems are solved by intelligence and hard work.
Jawaharlal Nehru

We can't encourage narrow mindedness, for no nation can be great whose people are narrow in thought.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit.

Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Most of us seldom take the trouble to think. It is a troublesome and fatiguing process and often leads to uncomfortable conclusions. But crises and deadlocks when they occur have at least this advantage, that they force us to think.
Jawaharlal Nehru

Poverty anywhere is a danger to prosperity everywhere
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
...that great lover of peace, a man of giant stature who moulded, as few other men have done, the destinies of his age.
Jawaharlal Nehru

Facts are facts and will not disappear on account of your likes.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
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
Image
Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
A leader or a man of action in a crisis almost always acts subconsciously and then thinks of the reasons for his action.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
There is perhaps nothing so bad and so dangerous in life as fear.
Jawaharlal Nehru
