We need to learn from Chanakya - Chanakya's Powerful Quotes

Chanakya is one of the most remembered and awesome personalities of the ancient India whose contribution to the field of economics and statecraft are looked with wonder even today. This stupendous hero has accomplished two great works namely Arthashastra ( the principles of economics ) and Chanakya Niti ( Chanakya's secret of statecraft ). He was mighty king maker who single handedly moulded a street lad into a great emperor through sheer brain. Chanakya picked up Chandra Gupta from the streets and made him the ruler of great empire in order to avenge the humility he suffered in the court of Nandas.
