Jayalalitha is a performing monkey in the hands of Sasikala.
— Subramanian Swamy
Anyone who does not say, 'I am Indian first and then a Tamilian,' is anti-national.
If something happens to me, the people of Tamil Nadu should rise in my defence.
In politics, you have to balance these things: what is good for the country, what is available, and what is possible.
Hindutva is an idea where you learn things that schools and colleges do not teach you - to say we are all one because DNA says there is no such thing as Aryan or Dravidian.
If someone gives you support, and there are no conditions attached, why shouldn't I accept it?
Ahmed Patel and Sonia Gandhi are not too different political personalities.
The RBI governor post is very high in the Warrant of Precedence and requires a patriotic and unconditional commitment to our nation.
The Aadhar data that was leaked to American companies was, in a way, a betrayal to the country.
I have every right to tweet.
My critics began saying I was a chauvinist, nationalist, mad nationalist.
Homosexuality is a genetic flaw.
Shaktikanta Das being appointed as RBI Governor is wrong. He has worked closely in corrupt activities with P. Chidambaram and even tried to save him in court cases.
There is a serious effort going on by private airlines such as Spicejet and Vistara to benefit from this dismemberment of Jet Airways.
Alok Verma cannot be sacked based on the Central Vigilance Commission's (CVC) report without being heard. PM Modi should not listen to bogus legal brains.
I think the BJP is a joke. It is a party of semi-literates and has fascist tendencies. Such a party can never have real roots in India because Hinduism is the antithesis of fascism.
I am calling Shaktikanta Das as a corrupt person. I am surprised that the man I got removed from the Finance Ministry for corruption was brought in as governor.
Not all politicians have a nexus with Veerappan.
The UPA awarded Brijesh Mishra with the second highest award of the country after Bharat Ratna. I am suggesting that he was a Congress bug, a cat's paw. He was Congress' Trojan Horse. Even as he was the NSA, he worked for the Congress party.
See, Indira Gandhi was wrong in declaring the Emergency. She tried to put me in jail, but she could not. People voted her back, and I worked with her after that. Even though I was not a member of the Congress, she sought my help on China. You can't have personal vendetta, you see.
The BJP's central leadership needs to recast the party structure where you openly speak of Hindutva and Indianness.
The younger generation has become very nationalistic, self-confident. Increasingly, they do not see the Congress as their party.
I have done my duty and lived up to my promise of having exposed Jayalalitha.
I don't trust most journalists who belong to Anglo Saxon stock because we know what your inclinations are.
Twenty years ago, when I spoke about women getting harassed by politicians, people said I was getting personal. Today, the climate has changed. It has become an epidemic. It's happening in every place.
Rahul Gandhi gets a copy of every programme that has been started by the Centre during Parliamentary procedure, but he has got no time to read. He has got time to go to night clubs.
You can auction coal blocks. All natural resources of government should be auctioned.
I'm not BJP's servant.
The interest rate because of Mr. Raghuram Rajan has been too high, and so medium and small industries have all collapsed. This has led to increased unemployment.
The effect of the foreign direct investment of Etihad in Jet Airways and the implied bilateral agreement of air services between India and the UAE has primarily damaged Air India, which is a government-owned airline with huge assets that are extremely valuable.
The Ministry of Civil Aviation should strongly recommend to the cabinet that Jet Airways should be merged with Air India, not only to ensure air services are not restricted but also to enable Air India to recover its former premier position.
As a good Brahmin, I think any money being given to me is dakshina. I will accept money from anybody as long as it is Indian. As a good Brahmin, it is my right to accept money.
Jayalalitha has turned out to be a failure as chief minister.
There is no concept of a Tamil nation. India is one nation, and Tamil Nadu is a part of that.
I never take up a case until I am convinced that the person is guilty.
Ordinary people want good government.
National identity does not figure in the Tamil way of thinking.
I have never been scared.
As far as the opposition to Jayalalitha was concerned, it was that she was misusing authority for personal corruption, denying people their liberties, attacking the opposition with violence, and there was nobody who could challenge her.
As governor of RBI, Dr. Rajan has sent confidential and sensitive financial information to various persons around the world on his University of Chicago unsecure personal email address. This is a reckless disregard of the national security of India.
Gujarat is a state which gave shelter to Parsi community who came from Iran; this is not the tradition and heritage of Gujarat.
The country is moving to a more open society.
BJP should direct our Ministers to wear traditional and modernised Indian clothes while abroad. In coat and tie, they look like waiters.
I know many judges who are homosexual.
Bose did not die in 1945. It is wrong. It is a conspiracy of Nehru and the Japanese. Subhash Chandra Bose sought shelter in Russia and was granted asylum. Jawaharlal Nehru knew everything.
I had opposed the Jet-Etihad FDI arrangement on the ground of the disproportionate share of airspace given to Etihad, which is against the interest of domestic passenger traffic and also against national interest.
I cannot become a Chowkidar because I am Brahmin. Brahmins can't be Chowkidars. It's a fact.
The RSS is an anti-national organisation. The quicker it is disintegrated, the better for India.
Rahul Gandhi cannot be a prime minister because he is a citizen of Britain, and his Indian citizenship will be cancelled; he won't even be an MP.
