Subhas Chandra Bose, also known as Netaji, was one of the most influential and charismatic leaders of the Indian freedom struggle. He was born on January 23, 1897, in Cuttack, Odisha, and dedicated his life to the cause of India’s independence from British colonial rule. He founded the Indian National Army (INA) and forged alliances with Japan and Germany during World War II to fight against the British forces. He is widely admired and respected for his courage, vision, and patriotism.

On his 127th birth anniversary, we celebrate his legacy and remember some of his inspiring quotes that still motivate and inspire millions of Indians today.

“Give me blood, and I shall give you freedom!”

This is perhaps the most famous and powerful quote by Netaji, which he uttered during a speech in Burma in 1944, urging the Indian soldiers and civilians to join the INA and sacrifice their lives for the liberation of their motherland. He believed that freedom could only be achieved through bloodshed and struggle, and not through negotiations or petitions.

“One individual may die for an idea, but that idea will, after his death, incarnate itself in a thousand lives.”

Netaji was well aware of the risks and dangers involved in his mission, and he was ready to face them with courage and conviction. He knew that his life was not his own, but belonged to the nation and its future generations. He also knew that his idea of a free and united India would not die with him, but would live on in the hearts and minds of millions of Indians who shared his vision and dream.

“Freedom is not given, it is taken.”

Netaji was a firm believer in the principle of self-reliance and self-determination. He did not wait for the British to grant India its freedom, but rather took the initiative and the responsibility to fight for it. He did not depend on the goodwill or mercy of the oppressors, but rather challenged and confronted them with force and determination. He did not accept the status quo, but rather changed it with his actions and leadership.

“It is our duty to pay for our liberty with our own blood. The freedom that we shall win through our sacrifice and exertions, we shall be able to preserve with our own strength.”

Netaji was not only a visionary leader, but also a pragmatic and realistic one. He understood that freedom was not a gift or a privilege, but a right and a duty. He also understood that freedom came with a price and a responsibility. He was willing to pay that price with his own blood, and he expected the same from his fellow countrymen. He also knew that freedom was not a one-time achievement, but a continuous process that required constant vigilance and protection.

“No real change in history has ever been achieved by discussions.”

Netaji was not a fan of passive or peaceful methods of resistance or protest. He believed that words and arguments were not enough to bring about any significant or lasting change in the course of history. He advocated for direct and violent action against the enemy, and he led by example. He did not waste his time or energy in debates or dialogues, but rather in planning and executing his strategies and tactics.

“Reality is, after all, too big for our frail understanding to fully comprehend. Nevertheless, we have to build our life on the theory which contains the maximum truth.”

Netaji was a man of science and reason, as well as a man of faith and intuition. He acknowledged the limitations and uncertainties of human knowledge and perception, but he did not let them stop him from pursuing his goals and ideals. He relied on the best available evidence and logic, as well as his own inner voice and conviction, to guide his actions and decisions. He was not dogmatic or rigid, but flexible and adaptable.

“Nationalism is inspired by the highest ideals of the human race, satyam [the truth], shivam [the god], sundaram [the beautiful].”

Netaji was a nationalist, but not a narrow-minded or chauvinistic one. He was inspired by the universal values and principles of humanity, such as truth, justice, and beauty. He did not hate or discriminate against other nations or peoples, but rather respected and appreciated their diversity and culture. He did not seek to dominate or exploit others, but rather to cooperate and collaborate with them.

“The secret of political bargaining is to look more strong than what you really are.”

Netaji was a master of diplomacy and negotiation, as well as a master of war and strategy. He knew how to deal with his allies and enemies, and how to gain their trust and respect. He knew how to project his confidence and strength, and how to conceal his weaknesses and vulnerabilities. He knew how to make his demands and offers, and how to compromise and concede. He knew how to play the game of politics, and how to win it.

“Life loses half its interest if there is no struggle — if there are no risks to be taken.”

Netaji was a man of adventure and excitement, as well as a man of duty and service. He did not shy away from challenges or difficulties, but rather embraced them with enthusiasm and curiosity. He did not fear risks or failures, but rather welcomed them as opportunities and lessons. He did not seek comfort or security, but rather sought growth and fulfillment. He did not live a boring or ordinary life, but rather lived an extraordinary and remarkable one.

“Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.”

Netaji was a man of liberty and democracy, as well as a man of discipline and authority. He valued and respected the rights and freedoms of individuals and groups, and he defended and promoted them. He also recognized and accepted the responsibilities and consequences of those rights and freedoms, and he expected and demanded them. He did not impose or dictate his views or choices on others, but rather allowed and encouraged them to make their own. He did not judge or punish others for their mistakes, but rather helped and supported them to learn from them.

These are some of the inspiring quotes by Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose that reflect his personality, philosophy, and legacy. He was a man of many facets and dimensions, and he left behind a rich and lasting heritage for the nation and the world. He was, and still is, a source of inspiration and admiration for millions of Indians who aspire to follow his footsteps and fulfill his vision. He was, and still is, Netaji – the revered leader.
