“Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit.”

That great lover of peace, a man of giant stature who moulded, as few other men have done, the destinies of his age.

Unity must be of the mind and heart, a sense of belonging together and of facing together those who attack it.

Where freedom is menaced or justice threatened or where aggression takes place, we cannot be and shall not be neutral.

The art of a people is a true mirror of their minds.

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

Those who boast are seldom the great.

Evil unchecked grows, evil tolerated poisons the whole system.

What we need is a generation of peace.

A man who is afraid will do anything.

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

For the first time i began to think, consciously and deliberately of religion and other worlds. The Hindu religion especially went up in my estimation; not the ritual or ceremonial part, but it’s great books, the “Upnishads,” and the “Bhagavad Gita.”

History is the record of human progress, a record of the struggle of the advancement of the human mind, of the human spirit, towards some known or unknown objective.

Great causes and little men go ill together.

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.

As fear is a close companion to falsehood, so truth follows fearlessness.

The forces in a capitalist society, if left unchecked, tend to make the rich richer and the poor poorer.

You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind.

Critics haven’t taught me my cricket, and they don’t know what my body and mind are up to.

The only thing on my mind right now is trying to win the whole thing.

Religious fanatics want people to switch off their own minds, ignore the evidence, and blindly follow a holy book based upon private revelation.

Control your mind creates the ability for you to achieve more things in reality.

In the space of no-mind, truth descends like light.

I doubt I would have written a line, unless some minor tragedy had sort of twisted my mind out of the normal rut.

Some things you will think of yourself, some things God will put into your mind.
