― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Knowing that, face it but do not run.”

At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance”

Responsibility is the price of freedom-Jawaharlal Nehru
May we think of freedom as the right to do as we please, but as the opportunity to do what is right. --Barack Obama
Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves. – “Abraham Lincoln”

“To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man's injustice to woman. If by strength is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is woman less brute than man. If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man's superior. Has she not greater intuition, is she not more self-sacrificing, has she not greater powers of endurance, has she not greater courage? Without her, man could not be. If nonviolence is the law of our being, the future is with woman. Who can make a more effective appeal to the heart than woman?"
― Mahatma Gandhi
“Everybody is a book of blood; wherever we're opened, we're red.”
― Clive Barker
“A state that does not

    Colonel Vs Woman

    • 322 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Directly from the start of this passage men are shown to be more courageous and powerful than woman. The conversation that the young girl has with the colonel shows how society idolizes men to always be a better than women, the term she uses to describe women being inferior “jumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouse era” is a very common and coherent example all of us have been hearing for a long time. The colonel debates that women don’t have the “actual nerve control of men”. This clearly shows us that in this society men overpower women. The Colonel further says that a woman’s reaction to any crisis is to panic or scream. “A women’s unfailing reaction to any crisis, is to scream”. This also serves as a proof of how women are considered to be less courageous and get the jitters whenever presented with a challenging situation.…

    “Life for both sexes — and I looked at them, shouldering their way along the pavement — is arduous, difficult, a perpetual struggle. It calls for gigantic courage and strength. More than anything, perhaps, creatures of illusion as we are, it calls for confidence in oneself. Without self-confidence we are as babes in the cradle. “…

    INDIA OF MY DREAMS

    • 1773 Words
    • 6 Pages

    While going through the sources, I happen to read Dr. Abdul Kalam’s question to one little girl, what was her dream for India? She replied “I dream of a developed India”. Giving a thought to what she said, I learned that her answer may be short but her dream was very big. Now it was a time for me to think of the same issue...that’s India of my dream. This is a topic, which is as deep like an ocean which has dangerous Sharks as well as the beautiful pearls. There is so much to dream about India; so much to cherish, so much to wish for, so much to hate and so much to desire about it. The real problem is what to write down and what to omit.…
