“When we started the Self-Respect Movement, we had five basic goals—to destroy God, religion, Gandhi, Congress and the Brahmin. —Periyar, in his last public speech”
Bala Jeyaraman, Periyar: A Political Biography of E.V. Ramaswamy

“The Congress’ obsession with Hindi had its roots in Gandhi’s belief that Hindi would be able to unite Indians linguistically against the colonial power.”
Bala Jeyaraman, Periyar: A Political Biography of E.V. Ramaswamy

“I talked with my rustic customers and fellow merchants. I also spoke with the pious devotees and priests. These conversations generally gave shape to my anti-religion, anti-shastra, anti-purana and atheist policies. They formed the basis for my views on caste, God and religion. I also developed a general distaste for Brahminism. —Periyar, on his childhood days”
Bala Jeyaraman, Periyar: A Political Biography of E.V. Ramaswamy
