"4 Kalki 11:11, 30 December 2006 (UTC) Very good quote, matching not only Marshall's birthday, but the celebration of New Year's Eve, and despite having much wanted to use "Auld Lang Syne", for 2006 alone, I am boosting what I would have ranked a 3 to a 4, as it also fits well as the date after the execution of Saddam Hussein."

"0 I hardly think "Calvin and Hobbes" would be a better selection than any of the suggestions...especially not if the quote is just simply "It's a magical world, Hobbes, ol' buddy...Let's go exploring!"...and? It provokes no sympathy or thought whatsoever. Sorry, although I do like Calvin/Hobbes and other comic strips...I don't think they make for worthwhile representations as QOTD material. The only people who would even find this worthwhile and inspiring are die-hard fans. Zarbon 05:12, 12 December 2008 (UTC)"

"1 ♞☤☮♌︎Kalki ⚚⚓︎⊙☳☶⚡ 00:34, 31 December 2017 (UTC) Good quote, but this is a misattribution, in that it did not originate with his uses of it — it is still possibly usable with better sourcing. 3 ♞☤☮♌︎Kalki ⚚⚓︎⊙☳☶⚡ 23:34, 28 December 2013 (UTC) (it appears this IS his day of birth — don't know how I had missed this earlier) 1 Kalki 11:11, 30 December 2006 (UTC) Good quote, but no clear relation to the date."

Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
