India is known for much development that has happened since our independence, but at the same time, we have also failed on many levels. It is the responsibility of the future generation to ensure that all these failures are corrected and help create a civilised society with equal opportunities for one and all.

India is more of an aid recipient than a provider of aid.
‐‐ Bill Gates
India is mostly vegetarian, and I think that will be crucial to changing the world. I think the United States is lost.

India is not a capitalist nation and should never be a capitalist nation.

India is now changing and regaining its lustre, and it is coming of age.
‐‐ Nita Ambani
India is one of the world's largest and most peaceful states with advanced nuclear technologies and has been isolated from the rest of the world on nuclear issues.
‐‐ Henry Paulson
India is special, and its beauty absolutely humbled us. When we toured there as Major Lazer, it was mind-blowing to see our fan-base.

‐‐ Baba Kalyani
India is such a hospitable country.
‐‐ Daria Werbowy
India is the meeting place of the religions and among these Hinduism alone is by itself a vast and complex thing, not so much a religion as a great diversified and yet subtly unified mass of spiritual thought, realization and aspiration.
‐‐ Sri Aurobindo
India is the most competitive manufacturing destination on this planet. If we are able to take advantage of that competitiveness for our domestic markets, this country would be humming with activity; industrial production will grow at 10-11% per year.
‐‐ Baba Kalyani
India is the second biggest defence procurer in the world after the U.S.
‐‐ Baba Kalyani
India lends itself well to fictionalization, but ultimately, it all depends on the writer's imagination.
‐‐ Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
India made a big mistake by signing up to TRIPS. With a population of 1.3 billion, India can't afford a monopoly in healthcare. Monopolies lead to higher prices and we can't allow them in a country like India with so much poverty and misery. It was like signing our own death warrant.

India may be a land of over a 100 problems, but it is also a place for a billion solutions.
‐‐ Kailash Satyarthi
India may be the only country in the world that has been free of anti-Semitic prejudice throughout its history.
‐‐ Gary Weiss
India may be the soul of world cricket, but IPL is its commercial heart. Just as 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' changed the ground rules for quiz shows by injecting a massive dose of money into the equation, IPL has changed the dynamics of the cricket economy.
‐‐ Vikas Swarup
India means everything to me. It is my homeland. India is my country. It is here that I have gotten love and affection as a film star from millions and millions of my fans over the last five decades.
‐‐ Dilip Kumar
India needs a change - it cannot be ruled by 80-year-olds and by people who have done nothing for it.
‐‐ Arjun Rampal
India needs better producers than screenwriters. No producer wants to invest in out-of-the way scripts.
‐‐ Anurag Kashyap
India needs jobs, Germany needs people, and collaboration is crucial to meet the demographic needs of both countries.
‐‐ Angela Merkel
India needs to be liberated both from the 'high GDP growth hedgehogs' and the 'conservation at all costs hedgehogs.'
‐‐ Jairam Ramesh
India needs to come out of its socialist pattern of doing things on a rationing basis.
‐‐ Ratan Tata
India needs to sustain its high growth rate.
‐‐ N. R. Narayana Murthy
India of the ages is not dead nor has she spoken her last creative word; she lives and has still something to do for herself and the human peoples.
‐‐ Sri Aurobindo
India offers exciting business opportunities owing to the growth in corporate travel and a significant middle-class population waiting to explore the world. To begin with, Travelex is setting up eight city centre branches in metros and other major cities including tourist destinations.
‐‐ Lloyd Dorfman
India profoundly changed my outlook on life because you see how people can be content and very happy with little or even no possessions. It's the reverse of the West.
‐‐ Gary Wright
India remains one of the few nations which still focuses entirely on an archaic de-addiction model, administered by the ministry of social justice and empowerment, to address drinking problems, adhering to a centuries-old idea of these problems being a moral disorder rather than a health condition.
‐‐ Vikram Patel
India's a fascinating country. It's constantly changing, but there's still a lot of superstition and backwards thinking.
‐‐ Lillete Dubey
India's blood and India's gold was sought and unfortunately given - given to break Turkey and buy the fetters of the Rowlatt legislation.
‐‐ Muhammad Ali Jinnah
India's dynamic growth, coupled with its large reservoir of skilled workforce, its commitment to democracy, and the rule of law, all taken together make India a very attractive investment destination.
‐‐ Preneet Kaur
India's great economic boom, the arrival of the Internet and outsourcing, have broken the wall between provincial India and the world.
‐‐ Aravind Adiga
India's growth drivers are actually two growth drivers. One is consumption, which arises out of our demographic advantage. And the other is the investments. Because we need a lot of investment in the country.
‐‐ Chanda Kochhar
India's national elections are really an aggregate of thirty different state elections, each influenced by its own local considerations, regional political currents, and different patterns of political incumbency.
‐‐ Shashi Tharoor
India's prosperity is sectioned by geography, such as in Bangalore, where the information technology industry is prominent. Because they have a conduit out of India, competing in the world by the Internet, it's not regulated in corrupt ways, and it is very prosperous.
‐‐ Clayton Christensen
India's rigid social structure limits intergenerational economic mobility and fosters acceptance of vast wealth disparities.
‐‐ Steven Rattner
India's trade deficit is because of excess of import over exports.
‐‐ A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
India saw from the beginning, and, even in her ages of reason and her age of increasing ignorance, she never lost hold of the insight, that life cannot be rightly seen in the sole light, cannot be perfectly lived in the sole power of its externalities.
‐‐ Sri Aurobindo
India seeks to be a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council... things like this don't happen automatically, you need constant dialogue and discussion with the world.
‐‐ Pratibha Patil
India-Seychelles relations have been characterized by close friendship, understanding and cooperation.
‐‐ Pratibha Patil
India should walk on her own shadow - we must have our own development model.
‐‐ A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
India somehow constantly rivets and inspires me, and I feel very relieved to have come from this country which has a very 'lifeist' approach to living fully, no matter what one has or doesn't have.
‐‐ Mira Nair
India was a sensation. It was remarkable to see all those parrots flying about, the brilliant foliage and the brilliant sky. It was a tremendous pageant. I never noticed the poverty.
‐‐ Ruth Prawer Jhabvala
India was formed on the idea 'Let's get the British out.'
‐‐ Shekhar Kapur
Indian actors, because of the format of our stories, need to be good actors, and be able to perform emotional sequences, do a bit of comedy, dance and singing, action, because all of this forms just one film. In many ways I'd say there are greater demands on Indian actors than there are on Hollywood.
‐‐ Amitabh Bachchan
Indian business women like Indra Nooyi, Chanda Kochhar, Naina Lal Kidwai, Shikha Sharma, Swati Piramal, Anu Agha, Swati Piramal, Sulajja Firodia Motwani and Zia Mody have put India on the global firmament.

Indian car buyers have not really been exposed to customer care in a competitive environment.
‐‐ Ratan Tata
Indian celebrities have the media and fans permanently outside their homes, and that would make me really uncomfortable.
