...It is man's creative power and that alone which makes himself, his stars,
his history, his Karma, etc., though no doubt he has to take necessarily due
account of factors and forces around him. WORK, WORK, WORK, ACTION, ACTION, ACTION,
SELF-RELIANCE, SELF-RELIANCE, SELF-RELIANCE This is the stern, simple golden
rule of timeless truth for any success that man makes. And there is no other
rule which comes first before it. ...
(Presidential Address, AFPFL Supreme Council Session, August, 1946)
