Our Wazir-e-Azam enters the 65th Year of his life, here's a collection of some of the most inspirational quotes from him:
- I can promise you. If you work 12 hours, I will work for 13. If you work 14 hours, I will work for 15 hours. Why? Because I am not a pradhan mantri, but a pradhan sevak.
- Today a boy from small town, a poor family has got the opportunity to pay homage to the Tricolour of India at the ramparts of Lal Quila(Red Fort). This is the strength of India's democracy.
- Today in the face of global competition, when we have to realise the dreams of millions of Indians, the country cannot run on the lines of "it happens", "it goes".
- It is important how we view the youth of our nation. To simply consider them as new age voters will be a big mistake. They are the new age power.
- Parents ask their daughters hundreds of questions, but have any parents ever dared to ask their son as to where he is going, why he is going out, who his friends are. After all, a rapist is also somebody's son. He also has parents. As parents, have we ever asked our son as to what he is doing and where he is going?
- Whoever you are it is all because of your parents. I want to ask you to think how green, how beautiful and how beneficial this earth can become if you shoulder the plough instead of the gun which spills blood on this land.
- Have we ever thought what the sex ratio in the country is like? 940 girls are born against per 1,000 boys. Who is causing this imbalance in the society? Certainly not God. I request the doctors not to kill the girl growing in the womb of a mother just to line their own pockets. I advise mothers and sisters not to sacrifice daughters in the hope of son.
- You imagine, if these 125 crore countrymen move one step forward, then the country moves 125 crore steps forward.
- The meaning of democracy is not just limited to electing a government, but its meaning is that 125 crore of citizens work together joining shoulder with the government to fulfill hopes and aspirations of the country, this is the meaning of democracy.
- If we have to promote the development of our country then our mission has to be "skill development" and "skilled India".
- It should be our dream that this message reaches every corner of the world, "Made in India"
- I come from a poor family, I have seen poverty. The poor need respect and it begins with cleanliness.
