1. Failure
comes only when we forget our ideals and objectives and principles.
2. What
we really are matters more than what other people think of us.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Life
is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you
play it is free will.
6. Time
is not measured by the passing of years but by what one does, what one feels,
and what one achieves.
7. Ignorance
is always afraid of change.
8. A
leader or a man of action in a crisis almost always acts subconsciously and
then thinks of the reasons for his action.
9. Facts
are facts and will not disappear on account of your likes.
10. Our
chief defect is that we are more given to talking about things than to doing
them.
11. Let
us be a little humble; let us think that the truth may not perhaps be entirely
with us.
12. It
is the habit of every aggressor nation to claim that it is acting on the
defensive.
13. Democracy
and socialism are means to an end, not the end itself.
14. Without
peace, all other dreams vanish and are reduced to ashes.
15. Crises
and deadlocks when they occur have at least this advantage that they force us
to think.
16. Citizenship
consists in the service of the country.
17. You
don't change the course of history by turning the faces of portraits to the
wall.
18. 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.
19. Action
itself, so long as I am convinced that it is right action, gives me
satisfaction.
20. Action
to be effective must be directed to clearly conceived ends.
21. The
man who has gotten everything he wants is all in favor of peace and order.
22. The
person who talks most of his own virtue is often the least virtuous.
23. To
be in good moral condition requires at least as much training as to be in good
physical condition.
24. Democracy
is good. I say this because other systems are worse.
25. Great
causes and little men go ill together.
26. I
have become a queer mixture of the East and the West, out of place everywhere,
at home nowhere.
27. Loyal
and efficient work in a great cause, even though it may not be immediately
recognized, ultimately bears fruit.
28. The
only alternative to coexistence is co-destruction.
29. The
purely agitational attitude is not good enough for a detailed consideration of
a subject.
30. There
is perhaps nothing so bad and as dangerous in life as fear.
31. The
person who runs away exposes himself to that very danger more than a person who
sits quietly.
32. Culture
is the widening of the mind and of the spirit.
33. Every
little thing counts in a crisis.
34. The
art of a people is a true mirror to their minds.
35. The
policy of being too cautious is the greatest risk of all.
36. A
theory must be tempered with reality.
37. Obviously,
the highest type of efficiency is that which can utilize existing material to
the best advantage.
38. Socialism
is not only a way of life, but a certain scientific approach to social and
economic problems.
39. The
forces in a capitalist society, if left unchecked, tend to make the rich richer
and the poor poorer.
40. It
is only too easy to make suggestions and later try to escape the consequences
of what we say.
