Dr. Abdul Kalam's Speech at Hyderabad
Mr. APJ Abdul Kalaam's speech in Hyderabad A must read for every Indian
Quote:
I have three visions for india.
In 3000 years of our history, people from al over the world have come and invaded us, captured our lands, conguered our minds. From Alexander onwards. The Greeks, the Turks, the Moguls, the Portuguese, The British, the French, the Dutch, all of them came and looted us, took over what over what was ours. Yet we have not done this to any other nation. We have not conquered anyone. We have not grabbed their land, their culture, their history and tried to enforce our way of life on them. Why? Becuase we respect the freedom of othrs. That is why my first vision is that of FREEDOM. I believe that India got its first vision of this in 1857, when we started the war of independence. It is this freedom that we must protect and nuture and build on. If we are not free, no one will respect us.
