“When I took over as president, I studied the Constitution, and the more I studied it, the more I realised that it does not prevent the president of India from giving the nation a vision.

“Power properly understood is nothing but the ability to achievepurpose... one of the great problems of history is that the concepts of love and power have usually been contrasted as opposites --- polar opposites --- so that love is identified with a resignation of power, and power with a denial of love...

Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.”
