On India however, Mark Twain, the father of Modern American Literature, has this to say:
“India is, the support of humankind, the origination of human discourse, the mother of history, the grandma of legend, and the considerable excellent mother of convention. our most important and most informational materials in the historical backdrop of man are prized up in India as it were.”
Albert Einstein, troublesome hypothetical physicist:
“We owe a considerable measure to the Indians, who taught us how to check, without which no advantageous exploratory disclosure could have been made.”
Hu Shih, previous Chinese Diplomat said to his US partner:
“India vanquished and ruled China socially for 20 centuries while never sending a solitary fighter over her fringe.”

W Heisenberg, a German Physict said:
“After the discussions about Indian rationality, a portion of the thoughts of Quantum Physics that had appeared to be so insane all of a sudden seemed well and good.”
I’d end it with Mark Twain:
“So far as I am ready to judge, nothing has been left fixed, either by man or nature, to make India the most uncommon nation that the sun visits on his rounds. Nothing appears to have been overlooked, nothing ignored.”
