Proud to be Indian



Here is what the intellectuals around the world have said about India…

“We owe a lot to Indians, who taught us how to count without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made.”
-Albert Einstein.

“India is the cradle of human race,
The birthplace of human speech, the mother of History,
The grandmother of Legend
and the great-grandmother of tradition.
Our most valuable and most instructive materials in the History of man are treasured-up in India only.”
-Mark Twain

“If there is one place on the face of earth, where the dreams of living men have found a home from the very earliest days when man began the dream of existence, it’s India.”
-Romain Rolland, a French Scholar

“India conquered and dominated China culturally for more than 20 centuries without ever having to send a single soldier across her borders.”
-Hu Shih, Former Ambassador of China to USA


“By the end of the century the world will be still dominated by the West but in the 21st Century, India will conquer her conquerors.”
– Arnold Toynbee the great historian (Conquest-Cultural), Somewhere around the middle of the 20th Century
