Be Educated, Be Organised and Be Agitated
• If you want success, you must be narrow minded.
• A person with an open mind is always the subject of congratulations. While this may be so, it must, at the same time, be realized that an open mind may also be an empty mind and that such an open mind, if it a happy condition, is also a very dangerous condition for a man to be in.
• You may abuse me as much as possible, provided you do not take much time. I am concerned more with time than with abuse.
• There will be no difference between parents and animals if they will not desired to see their children in a better position than their own.
• The history of India is nothing but a history of a mortal conflict between Buddhism and Brahmanism.
• You must abolish your slavery yourselves. It is disgraceful to live at the cost of one’s self-respect. Self-respect is a most vital factor in life. Without it man is a mere cipher. To live worthily with self-respect one has to overcome difficulties. It is out of hard and ceaseless struggle alone that one derives strength, confidence and recognition.
• My life is threatened if I came here to wake you up to the causes of your misery and shame. Man is mortal. Every one is to die some day or other. But one must resolve to lay down one’s life in enriching the noble ideals of self-respect and in bettering human life. We are not slaves. We are a warrior clan. Nothing is more disgraceful for a brave man than to live a life devoid of self-respect and without love for the country.
• If you stand by your resolve to extirpate your slavery root & branch and undergo all trials & tribulations for it, the credit & success of my being able to discharge the onerous task will be yours
If you want success, you must be narrow minded.
