"You know, with all the hard work we put in everyday, we definitely aren’t the only ones that want the best things of life. But this is the real world, and in the real world some of us take what we can get. But the truth is, there’s literally nothing wrong in wanting more, cos some of us actually deserve more"
"When you wholeheartedly love a person, you work on those toxic traits, you learn to communicate, you listen to each others feelings, respect each other's decisions and encourage each other."
"Fighting through in my youth, for father land, sweat and blood."
"Beginning of a new chapter for a few more prints on the sands of time. The journey continues, this time in Asia."
"We got off to a winning start and that is a wonderful memory to have. We had a great side in that tournament and should have advanced to the second round."
"We knew that we would probably have to win the game to progress, but I was injured and could not play. That was very frustrating, sitting on the sidelines and not being able to help the team."
"Playing in France has been good. I feel very welcome here. I've been happy since I got here and things have really improved compared to the other places that I've played in in Europe. It all started in New Zealand though. Playing there in a FIFA-organised tournament was a great platform for me.

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.
