His personal emblem, a freshly plucked rose, in the button hole of his tunic, a pensive Jawharlal Nehru poses for a moment in the garden of Viceroy’s House
"Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge.... At the stroke of the midnight hour, while the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance...." Jawaharlal Nehru @ Indian Constituent Assembly, New Delhi, August 14, 1947
