Anxiety Quote by Bhagat Singh
“We become pitiable and ridiculous when we imbibe an unreasoned mysticism in our life without any natural or substantial basis. People like us, who are proud to be revolutionary in every sense, should always be prepared to bear all the difficulties, anxieties, pain and suffering which we invite upon ourselves by the struggles initiated by us and for which we call ourselves revolutionary.”

Embracing baseless mysticism makes us foolish; true revolutionaries must accept hardship and suffering that result from their own struggles.
In simple terms: Blind faith leads to ridicule; real rebels endure pain they cause.
Accept hardship as part of revolutionary duty.
