Jawaharlal Nehru

“We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures that we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.”

“A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new; when an age ends; and when the soul of a nation long suppressed finds utterance.”

“Failure comes only when we forget our ideals and objectives and principles.”

“Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will.”

“You don't change the course of history by turning the faces of portraits to the wall.”

“Without peace, all other dreams vanish and are reduced to ashes.”

“Ignorance is always afraid of change.”

“I have become a queer mixture of the East and the West, out of place everywhere, at home nowhere.”

“The purely agitational attitude is not good enough for a detailed consideration of a subject.”
