If somebody trusts me, then I will reciprocate.

I have gained self-confidence, courage and the support of my people.

People cannot give up their cause, their rights, for fear of defeat.

If the Sri Lankan government resorts to state oppression against the Tamils and Muslims, then we will fight.

However formidable a military power you may be, you cannot impose upon a people anything against their will.

Through the intensive aspiration of the human soul arises in man the desire for independence.

If I am cheated or betrayed, I will react.
