Jail Diary of Bhagat Singh Quotes

“Men! Whose boast it is that ye Come of fathers, brave and free, If there breathes on earth a slave, Are ye truly free and brave? If you do not feel the chain When it works a brother’s pain, Are ye not base slaves indeed. Slaves unworthy to be freed? Is true Freedom but to break Fetters for our own dear sake, And, with leathern hearts, forget, That we owe mankind a debt? No! True Freedom is to share All the chains our brothers wear, Earnest to make others free! They are slaves who fear to speak For the fallen and the weak; They are slaves who will not choose Hatred, scoffing and abuse, Rather than in silence shrink From the truth they need must think; They are slaves who dare not be In the right with two or three. —James Russell Lowell”
