The Political Future of India

Now we are faced with the greatest and the grimmest struggle of all. Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, not amongst men, but amongst nations — great and small, powerful and weak, exalted and humble,— equality, fraternity, amongst peoples as well as amongst men — that is the challenge which has been thrown to us.… My appeal to the people of this country, and, if my appeal can reach beyond it, is this, that we should continue to fight for the great goal of international right and international justice, so that never again shall brute force sit on the throne of justice, nor barbaric strength wield the sceptre of right.
