"4 Kalki 23:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC) This is more entirely true, and not quite so extremely cynical as some of the other observations of Vidal suggested; I would probably have added a few of my own suggestions of Vidal quotes but haven't had the time today to even finish some of the things I started yesterday... "so it goes..." -->"

"4 the longer quote is better -- the preceding words provide nice "padding". Without it, the quote will look as just another extreme sentiment expressed to relieve boredom. N6n 14:31, 15 September 2010 (UTC) -->"

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.
