Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge,...At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. Jawaharlal Nehru

Mother, I bow to thee! Rich with thy hurrying streams, Bright with orchard gleams, Cool with thy winds of delight, Green fields waving, Mother of might, Mother free.

Mother, to thee I bow. Bankim Chandra Chaterjee

Freedom is never dear at any price. It is the breath of life. What would a man not pay for living? Mahatma Gandhi
