“Individual liberty can only be acquired individually. It is not something to be imposed, nor it is automatically guaranteed. One begins to commence it when the mind is no longer enslaved by foreign ideas and outwards carriages are commissioned from inner independent thinking.”
“Animosity is a temporary intrusion to the principle makeup of human nature of love, for no one is born with hate. Anything acquired can be discarded. But life is too precious to suffer from such transgression too long or too often.”
“In the tranquility of a majestic sunset, it is particularly striking how fondly I feel I am in nature and nature is in me.”
“The first thing every baby receives is the all-encompassing mother's love. Revivifying the purity of that native tenderness helps transcending the cleavage between complex emotions and love in its natural simplicity.”
“There is no quick way in resolving conflict. Compassion must be permitted with patience to perform its course of healing. It start with each of us being a little more compassionate.”
“Bigotry does not fear debate, because it does not follow logic or reasoning. Bigotry is thrilled when you become agitated. How to incapacitate it? Ignore it.”
“Democracy is a whole package of institutional course for arriving at political decisions. It encompasses the spirited artistry of exercising compromise, negotiation, and, indeed, cooperation. If it comes to merely counting votes, it is just a body without soul. ”
“For us to enliven the endurance of humanity, we must become accustomed to the repetition of humanitarian diligence. When the boredom of such life style is embraced with passion and becomes aspirational, subtle enlightenment transpires.”
