Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
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
Peace is not merely an absence of war. It is also a state of mind.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
In order to understand people, we have to understand their way of life and approach. If we wish to convince them, we have to use their language in the narrow sense of the mind. Something that goes even much further than that is not the appeal to logic and reason, but some kind of emotional awareness of the other people.

Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit. It is never a narrowing of the mind or a restriction of the human spirit or the country's spirit.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
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
Image
Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.
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
Those who are prepared to die for any cause are seldom defeated.
Jawaharlal Nehru

I wish that more and more adventurous young men would give up the gun in favour of the camera.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Image
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
Image
Where freedom is menaced or justice threatened or where aggression takes place, we cannot be and shall not be neutral.
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?
Jawaharlal Nehru
