On his birth anniversary, here’s a look at some of his inspiring quotes
Experience is the only teacher we have. We may talk and reason all our lives, but we shall not understand a word of truth.
Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.
Arise! Awake! And stop not, until the goal is reached.
In a conflict between the heart and the brain, follow your heart.
If you think yourselves strong, strong you will be.
The greatest religion is to be true to your own nature. Have faith in yourselves.
In a day, when you don’t come across any problems – you can be sure that you are travelling in a wrong path.
Talk to yourself once in a day, otherwise you may miss meeting an intelligent person in this world.
Be the servant while leading. Be unselfish. Have infinite patience, and success is yours.
The world is the great gymnasium where we come to make ourselves strong.
