Here are some inspirational and patriotic quotes by some of the greatest minds in our country
A nation's culture resides in the hearts and in the soul of its people -- Mahatma Gandhi
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 domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards 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 into ever-widening thought and action–
Into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake. -- Rabindranath Tagore
You give me your blood and I will give you Independence! -- Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose
India is not, as people keep calling it, an underdeveloped country, but rather, in the context of its history and cultural heritage, a highly developed one in an advanced state of decay -- Shashi Tharoor
I do not want India to be an economic superpower. I want India to be a happy country -- JRD Tata
