The future belongs to science and those who make friends with science.
Jawaharlal Nehru

The Ganga, especially, is the river of India, beloved of her people, round which are intertwined her memories, her hopes and fears, her songs of triumph, her victories and her defeats. She has been a symbol of India's age-long culture and civilization, ever changing, ever flowing, and yet ever the same Ganga.
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
Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism the way you play it is free will.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Wars are fought to gain a certain objective. War itself is not the objective victory is not the objective you fight to remove the obstruction that comes in the way of your objective. If you let victory become the end in itself then you've gone astray and forgotten what you were originally fighting about.

Jawaharlal Nehru

Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
The only alternative to coexistence is codestruction.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Time is not measured by the years that pass by, instead by the things you do, feel or accomplish.
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
Peace is not merely an absence of war. It is also a state of mind.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Children are like buds in a garden and should be carefully and lovingly nurtured, as they are the future of the nation and the citizens of tomorrow.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
It is dangerous and harmful to be guided in our life's course by hatreds and aversions, for they are wasteful of energy and limit and twist the mind and prevent it from perceiving the truth.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
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
Image
There is perhaps nothing so bad and so dangerous in life as fear.
Jawaharlal Nehru
