Forgiveness Is The Virtue Of

It's Not Right To Say That My Father Influenced Me More Than Others, And I Wouldn't Be Able To Say Whether My Personality Was Formed More By My Father Or My Mother Or The Mahatma [gandhi] Or The Friends Who Were With Us.

I Said That My Father Was Not A Politician. I, Instead, Think I Am. But Not In The Sense Of Being Interested In A Political Career - Rather In The Sense That I Think It Necessary To Strive To Build A Certain India, The India I Want.

We Always Said That Our Struggle Was Not Only Against The British As Representatives Of Colonialism, It Was Against All The Evil That Existed In India. The Evil Of The Feudal System, The Evil Of The System Based On Caste, The Evil Of Economic Injustice.

I Went Back Into Politics Only When It Was Clear That Things Weren't Going As They Should Have In My Party. I Was Always Arguing, I Argued With Everyone - With My Father, With The Leaders I Had Known Since I Was A Child...and One Day, It Was In 1955, One Of Them Exclaimed, 'you Do Nothing But Criticize! If You Think You Can Correct Things, Correct Them. Go Ahead, Why Don't You Try?' Well, I Could Never Resist A Challenge, So I Tried.

Peace We Want Because There Is Another War To Fight Against Poverty, Disease And Ignorance.
