“Often people think opportunity is a matter of luck. I believe opportunities are all around us. Some seize it. Others stand and let it pass by.”

A motivated manpower is the most important thing.

Meeting the deadlines is not good enough, beating the deadlines is my expectation.

True entrepreneurship comes only from risk-taking.

My commitment is to produce at the cheapest price and the best quality.

You do not require an invitation to make profits.

There is no difference between our methods and those of anybody else-the only difference is that our motivation and dedication he is much greater.

I sincerely believe that Indians have the ability to compete with the best in the world.

Does making money excite me? No, but I have to make money for my shareholders. What excites me is achievement, doing something difficult.

Never. Till my last breath I will work. To retire there is only one place- the cremation ground.

My advice to young entrepreneurs is not to accept defeat in the face of odds, and challenge negative forces with hope, self-confidence and conviction.

Secret of my success was to have ambition and know minds of men.

You have to take the calculated risk, to earn something.

Challenge negative forces with hope, self-confidence and conviction. I believe that ambition and initiative will ultimately triumph.

I dream of India becoming a great economic superpower.

Our dreams have to be bigger. Our ambitions higher. Our commitment deeper. And our efforts greater. This is my dream for Reliance and for India.

You accuse me of black marketing, but which of you has not slept with me?

I believe in one thing only, the power of human will.

This soul of yours has lived a million lives before you. Listen to it, believe in it. It knows the way, it has seen it all.

I’m an unbelievable designer.

I don’t like to stop. I believe when you stop, you die.

It is to believed because it is absurd.

I’m so frugal, you wouldn’t believe it.

I do believe in God. But you won’t find me visiting temples every now and then. I believe in self-realization. Peace of mind matters a lot to me. What’s the point in doing something just for the sake of it? I’d rather do something I like doing as long as I’m being true to myself.

Being confident and believing in your own self-worth is necessary to achieving your potential.
