Republic Day 2025: Inspiring quotes from our leaders

1. “Long years ago, we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially. At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom.”- Jawaharlal Nehru.

2. “Every citizen of India must remember that he is an Indian and he has every right in this country but with certain duties.” - Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.

4. "A country’s greatness lies in its undying ideal of love and sacrifice that inspire the mothers of the race!” - Sarojini Naidu.

5. “Ours is not a drive for power, but purely a non-violent fight for India’s independence.” - Mahatma Gandhi.

6. “So long as you do not achieve social liberty, whatever freedom is provided by the law is of no avail to you.” - BR Ambedkar.

7. “It is easy to kill individuals, but you cannot kill the ideas. Great empires crumbled, while the ideas survived.”- Bhagat Singh.

8. “Don't see others doing better than you; beat your own records every day, because success is a fight between you and yourself.” - Chandra Shekhar Azad.

9. “Where the mind is without fear, and the head is held high, where knowledge is free. Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls. Where words come out from the depth of truth, where tireless striving stretches its arms toward perfection. Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit. Where the mind is led forward by thee.” - Rabindranath Tagore.

10. “Freedom of mind is the real freedom. A person whose mind is not free, though he may not be in chains, is a slave, not a free man. One whose mind is not free, though he may not be in prison, is a prisoner and not a free man. One whose mind is not free, though alive, is no better than dead. Freedom of mind is the proof of one's existence.” - BR Ambedkar.
