To have lived without glory, without leaving a trace of existence, is not to have lived at all.

The Turkish Nation consists of the valiant descendants of a people that has lived independently and has considered independence the sole condition of existence.

There is nothing about which I am more anxious than my country, and for its sake I am willing to die ten deaths, if that be possible.

Death is something inevitable. When a man has done what he considers to be his duty to his people and his country, he can rest in peace. I believe I have made that effort and that is, therefore, why I will sleep for the eternity.

We will be remembered only if we give to our younger generation a prosperous and safe India, resulting out of economic prosperity coupled with civilizational heritage.

Death is nothing; but to live defeated and without glory is to die every day.
