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.

Success often comes to those who dare to act. It seldom goes to the timid who are ever afraid of the consequences.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Facts are facts and will not disappear on account of your likes.
Jawaharlal Nehru
The man who has gotten everything he wants is all in favor of peace and order.
Jawaharlal Nehru

Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism the way you play it is free will.
Jawaharlal Nehru
The purely agitational attitude is not good enough for a detailed consideration of a subject.
Jawaharlal Nehru
At the dawn of history India started on her unending quest, and trackless centuries are filled with her striving and the grandeur of her success and her failures. Through good and ill fortune alike she has never lost sight of that quest or forgotten the ideals which gave her strength.
Jawaharlal Nehru
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
Restraint does not mean weakness. It does not mean giving in.
Jawaharlal Nehru
People avoid action. Often because they are afraid of the consequences, for action means risk and danger. Danger seems terrible from a distance it is not so bad if you have a close look at it
Jawaharlal Nehru
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
As fear is a close companion to falsehood, so truth follows fearlessness.
Jawaharlal Nehru
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.
Jawaharlal Nehru
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
Those who are prepared to die for any cause are seldom defeated.
Jawaharlal Nehru
No country or people who are slaves to dogma and dogmatic mentality can progress.
Jawaharlal Nehru
