Tell me, why is the media here so negative? Why are we in India so embarrassed to recognise our own strengths, our achievements? We are such a great nation. We have so many amazing success stories but we refuse to acknowledge them. Why?
Abdul Kalam
The ability to forgive is one of man's greatest achievements.
Bryant H. McGill

Vince Lombardi
The achievements we forge in this place and in our nation will not be those of one person or one party.
Paul Martin
The achievements which society rewards are won at the cost of diminution of personality.

Hannah Cowley
The extinction of race consciousness as between Muslims is one of the outstanding achievements of Islam, and in the contemporary world there is, as it happens, a crying need for the propagation of this Islamic virtue.
