For me, the Congress party is now my life, the people of India are my life, and I will fight for the people of India and for this party.

If I am incompetent, I am useless, the people of India will see that.

There are people doing yoga in New York, dancing around; that's the power of India. You go to a nightclub somewhere in Spain and there's Amitabh Bachchan on the screen there, dancing around. That's the power of India. That's the power of Indian people.

India absorbs things; India's not a divisive place.

Returning to power in northern India is very important for the Congress party. No magic wand will work. We have to make our efforts. It will be a long and difficult struggle for us.

It doesn't matter how much wisdom you have. If you don't have position, you have nothing. That's the tragedy of India.
