“This is indeed India! The land of dreams and romance, of fabulous wealth and poverty... the country of hundred nations and a hundred tongues, of a thousand religions & two million gods, 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
Benaras is older than history, older than tradition, older even than legend, and looks twice as old as all of them put together.” — Mark Twain
“We owe a lot to the Indians, who taught us how to count, without which no worthwhile scientific discoveries could've been made.” — God knows who
“India was the motherland of our race, and Sanskrit the mother of Europe’s languages. She was the mother of our philosophy; mother, of much of our mathematics; mother, through Buddha, of the ideals embodied in Christianity, mother, through the village community, of self-government and democracy. Mother India is in many ways the mother of us all.” — Will Durant
