"I'm told [ Zulfikar Ali] Bhutto is..." - Quote by Indira Gandhi

“How can anybody who is the head of a nation afford not to be a prag-matist?”

“The power to question is the basis of all human progress.”

“I grew up like a boy, also because most of the children who came to our house were boys.”

“I would not wish to be Prime Minister, dear.”

“Remember there is plenty of room at the top-but not enough to sit down.”

“It is more often from pride than from defective understanding that people oppose established opinions: they find the best places taken in the good party and are reluctant to accept inferior ones.”

“The fact that so many successful politicians are such shameless liars is not only a reflection on them, it is also a reflection on us. When the people want the impossible, only liars can satisfy.”

“Could one start a Stagnation Party-which at General Elections would boast that during its term of office no event of the least importance had taken place?”

“Give women the vote, and in five years there will be a crushing tax on bachelors.”
