Even I, when I was a student in London, often wore Western clothes, and yet I'm the most Indian Indian I know.
Indira Gandhi
I like to think I've provided this faith. I also think that by providing faith, I've focused their pride. I say focused because pride isn't something you give. It doesn't even break out suddenly it's a feeling that grows very slowly, very confusedly.

Indira Gandhi
Difficulties can't be eliminated from life. Individuals will always have them, countries will always have them...The only thing is to accept them, if possible overcome them, otherwise to come to terms with them. It's all right to fight, yes, but only when it's possible.

Indira Gandhi
In all societies that have applied a form of socialism, a certain degree of social economic equality has been achieved.
Indira Gandhi
The India I want, I'll never tire of repeating, is a more just and less poor India, one entirely free of foreign influences. If I thought the country was already marching toward these objectives, I'd give up politics immediately and retire as prime minister.
Indira Gandhi
America always thought it was helping Pakistan. But if it hadn't helped Pakistan, Pakistan would have been a stronger country.
Indira Gandhi
We would rather starve than sell our national honor.
Indira Gandhi
I've never understood women who, because of their children, pose as victims and don't allow themselves any other activities.
Indira Gandhi
The civil servant is primarily the master of the short-term solution.
Indira Gandhi
You said, 'How is it possible for democracy to work with an illiterate people who are dying of hunger?' But with that people we made a democracy work.
