“Our country has often stood like a solid rock in the face of common danger, and there is a deep underlying unity which runs like a golden thread through all our seeming diversity.”

I am not as simple as I look.

If Pakistan has any ideas of annexing any part of our territories by force, she should think afresh. I want to state categorically that force will be met with force and aggression against us will never be allowed to succeed.

We have to surmount the difficulties that face us and work steadfastly for the happiness and prosperity of our country.

I am not as simple as I look.

Non-alignment will continue to be the fundamental basis of our approach to world problems and our relations with other countries.

There comes a time in the life of every nation when it stands at the crossroads of history and must choose which way to go.

We can win respect in the world only if we are strong internally and can banish poverty and unemployment from our country.

We believe in peace in the settlement of all disputes through peaceful means, in the abolition of war, and, more particularly, nuclear war.

India will have to hang down her head in shame if even one person is left who is said in any way to be untouchable.

The unique thing about our country is that we have Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Parsis, and people of all other religions. We have temples and mosques, gurdwaras and churches. But we do not bring all this into politics. This is the difference between India and Pakistan.

We must fight for peace bravely as we fought in war.

We believe in the dignity of man as an individual, whatever his race, colour or creed, and his right to better, fuller, and richer life.

I had always been feeling uncomfortable in my mind about giving advice to others and not acting upon it myself.

We cannot afford to spend millions and millions over nuclear arms when there is poverty and unemployment all around us.

No doubt we have to have bigger projects, bigger industries, basic industries, but it is a matter of the highest importance that we look to the common man, the weakest element in the society.

We believe in freedom, freedom for the people of each country to follow their destiny without external interference.

Wild animals would not stay in a country where there were so many people. Pa did not like to stay, either. He liked a country where the wild animals lived without being afraid.

Gos bless America, my home sweet home.

All of our people all over the country-except the pure-blooded Indians-are immigrants or descendants of immigrants, including even those who came over here on the Mayflower.

I love scoring goals for England and playing for England. That’s one of the reasons I didn’t retire – I love playing for my country.

I’m very friendly or whatever, but I would hardly say that I’m that cookie-cutter. I don’t live in L.A. or New York. I live in Texas, and I go to hole-in-the-wall bars, so there’s no paparazzi there.

I think the only music I didn’t listen to was country and western, and that holds to this day.

I’ve always been proud to represent my country, whether it be World Cups, European Championships or just friendly games, I’ve always been a proud person, I’m very patriotic.

Above all, this country is our own. Nobody has to get up in the morning and worry what his neighbors think of him. Being a Jew is no problem here.
