United We Stand And Divided We Fall
None but we Indians can well understand the value of unity and the saying, ‘United we stand, divided we fall.’ India was ruled by the British, who came to India as traders, and because of the fractions and infighting here, they became the rulers. A closed fist may be valued in lacs of rupees, but open hands are valueless. We can break a stick one by one, but we can’t break the bundle of these sticks, whatever power we may enjoy. The unity of a nation depends not on the number of individuals but on the fact that these individuals have a natural feeling of sincerity and loyalty towards the nation. History is a witness to the fact that we were defeated by foreigners only when we were divided. So it is very correct to say that “United we stand and divided we fall”.
