Quotes about India
We owe a lot to the Indians, who taught us how to count, without which
no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made.
Albert Einstein.




India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech,
the mother of history, the grandmother of legend and the great grand
mother of tradition.
Mark Twain.

If there is one place on the face of earth where all dreams of living
men have found a home from the very earliest days when man began the
dream of existence, it is India .

ever having to send a single soldier across her border.

ALL OF THE ABOVE IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG, THE LIST COULD BE
ENDLESS. BUT, if we don't see even a glimpse of that great India in the India
that we see today, it clearly means that we are not working up to our
potential; and that if we do, we could once again be an evershining and
inspiring country setting a bright path for rest of the world to follow.
