“Jayalalitha cannot be misled about anything. She is one of the most well informed persons today in Indian politics.”
“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.”
“My critics began saying I was a chauvinist, nationalist, mad nationalist.”
“Ordinary people want good government.”
“It has been established that most Indians have the same DNA profile irrespective of caste, religion, or region. Yet we find our text books talking about India being multiethnic.”
“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.”
“The RSS is an anti-national organisation. The quicker it is disintegrated, the better for India.”

“Why, when India's agricultural products are among the cheapest in the world despite a low yield per hectare, are we not able to double the production and export the products abroad?”
“The Indian economy has declined because of the peculiar Indian 'invention' of that perfidious financial derivative called Participatory Notes, or PNs, otherwise known as the crony/crooked facilitator for black-money-based portfolio investment. No other country would think of such a derivative.”
“I think the first thing we should do is abolish the income tax.”
“I have done my duty and lived up to my promise of having exposed Jayalalitha.”
“Materialistic progress alone does not guarantee national security. What is essential is the character and integrity of the country's citizens.”
“With the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Marxists are coming around to seeing my views on the economy with greater perspective. I was the one who propounded that there should be a 'level-playing field' among nations on the economic front, that they cannot have low-interest rates in their countries and argue against cheap labour in India.”
“I'm not BJP's servant.”
“Jayalalitha is a performing monkey in the hands of Sasikala.”
“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.”
