Quotes by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel
-- Manpower without unity is not a strength unless it is harmonized and united properly, then it becomes a spiritual power.
-- By common endeavour, we can raise the country to new greatness, while a lack of unity will expose us to fresh calamities
-- Young men and women are to build-up a strong character. A nation's greatness is reflected in the character of her people. If it was sullied by selfishness, such a people could not prosper or achieve great things. Selfishness had its place in life as everyone had to look to his own needs and that of his family, but it could not be made the be-all and end-all of life.
