What do I think of Western civilisation? I think it would be a very good idea.
In a strictly scientific sense God is at the bottom of both good and evil.
God has so ordered this world that no one can keep his goodness or badness exclusively to himself.
Legal imposition avoids the necessity of honour or good faith.
Man should forget his anger before he lies down to sleep.
Even swadeshi, like any other good thing, can be ridden to death if it is made a fetish.
Men are good. But they are poor victims making themselves miserable under the false belief that they are doing good.
Labour, because it chose to remain unintelligent, either became subservient, or insolently believed in damaging the capitalists' goods and machinery or even in killing the capitalists.
A love that is based on the goodness of those whom you love is a mercenary affair.
An education which does not teach us to discriminate between good and bad, to assimilate the one and eschew the other, is a misnomer
God lives, but not as we. His creatures live but to die. But God is life. Therefore, goodness is not an attribute. Goodness is God.
What is a man if he is not a thief who openly charges as much as he can for the goods he sells?
There are no good-byes, where ever you'll be, you'll be in my heart.
Wherever you are you will always be in my heart.
