Seva, aadarsh, deshbhakti ki bhaavna ko...apne bachchon ko paDhaanaa, sirf paDhaana, sikhaanaa nahiin

Film : Marte Dam Tak
Year of release : 1987
Spoken by : DCP Lal (IfteKhar)
Spoken to : Rana or SI Rane (Raaj Kumar)
Dialogue writer : K K Singh

SI Rane (Raaj Kumar) wants to arrest PC Mathur (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) for his crimes. DCP Lal is trying to dissuade him from doing so, by telling him about the extent of Mathur's influence.

"Seva, aadarsh, deshbhakti ki bhaavna ko, kisi puraani band kitaab ki tarah...apni library mein sambhaal kar rakhnaa. Aur apne bachchon ko paDhaanaa, sirf paDhaana, sikhaanaa nahiin, varna unke bachche, daane daane ko mohtaaj ho jaayenge."
"सेवा, आदर्श, देशभक्ति की भावना को, किसी पुरानी बंद किताब की तरह... अपनी लाइब्रेरी में संभाल कर रखना. और अपने बच्चों को पढ़ाना, सिर्फ़ पढ़ाना, सिखाना नहीं. वर्ना उनके बच्चे, दाने दाने को मोहताज हो जायेंगे."

SI Rane of course gives a bombastic response, but I liked this line better. Iftekhar rarely plays a policeman in a negative shade.
