Throwing away food is like stealing from the table of those who are poor and hungry.

My only desire is that India should be a good producer, and no one should be hungry, shedding tears for food in the country.

It is a well-known fact that current levels of production are sufficient, yet millions of people are still suffering and dying of starvation. This is truly scandalous.

In a country well governed, poverty is something to be ashamed of. In a country badly governed, wealth is something to be ashamed of.

We now undertake that we cannot rest while millions of our people suffer the pain and indignity of poverty in all its forms.

New Orleans food is as delicious as the less criminal forms of sin.
