I understand, I'm with you: PM Modi's top quotes from moving address to ISRO scientists

In a moving address to ISRO scientists on Saturday morning, Prime Minister Narendra Modi beautifully wove pearls of wisdom with words of encouragement. The PM lauded the ISRO team for its exemplary feat and asked not to lose heart after the Vikram Lander lost contact with the ISRO ground station.

You spend your entire life to make Mother India proud. I can understand your state of mind.

You have given your best only and will give us several more reasons to smile.

The ISRO is recognised by the world as one of the greatest space agencies. No matter where I travel, the name that ISRO has created for itself is something that makes the nation proud of you all.

In our illustrious history, we have faced moments that may have slowed us but they have never crushed our spirit.

We have bounced back again and gone on to do spectacular things. This is the reason why our civilization stands tall.

I salute not just you all (scientists), but also your families, for their contribution is priceless towards you all achieving so much over the years. There may be setbacks but we have not lost hope. We have strengthened our resolve.

You are the ones who live for the country. You are the ones who sacrifice your own dreams and spend sleepless nights to keep India's head high.

Today our willpower to touch the moon has become more determined, and our resolve has strengthened.

Don't lose hope. Be courageous. There are ups and downs in life.

What you all have done is not a small thing. You have done a great service to the country, science, and mankind. I am with you. I wish you all the best.
