“Knowledge makes you powerful and proud; wisdom makes you simple and humble.”

“Knowledge is the most essential ingredient of life, and it comes from curiosity.”

“Common sense comes not just from knowledge, but also from wisdom.”

“Creativity is a song of knowledge, imagination, and action.”

“Knowledge will reveal its value only when we use it to gain wisdom through experience.”

“Some people build roads and then walk”

“If I were a dictator, religion and state would be separate. I swear by my religion. I will die for it. But it is my personal affair. The state has nothing to do with it. The state would look after your secular welfare, health, communications, foreign relations, currency and so on, but not your or my religion. That is everybody’s personal concern!”

“…wearing a turban of yellow, signifying knowledge, and a robe of purple, portraying purity and activity, Virchand Gandhi of Bombay delivered a lecture on the religions of India….”

“I believe that Gandhi’s views were the most enlightened of all the political men in our time. We should strive to do things in his spirit: not to use violence in fighting for our cause, but by non-participation in anything you believe is evil.”

“The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust. The world crushes the dust under its feet, but the seeker after truth should so humble himself that even the dust could crush him. Only then, and not till then, will he have a glimpse of truth.”

“When every hope is gone, ‘when helpers fail and comforts flee,’ I find that help arrives somehow, from I know not where. Supplication, worship, prayer are no superstition; they are acts more real than the acts of eating, drinking, sitting or walking. It is no exaggeration to say that they alone are real, all else is unreal.”

“Appreciation has tremendous power. A beautiful thing is not beautiful until someone appreciates it.”

“Don’t think about the possibilities of failing. Never forget to think about the possibilities of flying.”
