I am an Indian to the core.

Some of you think an Indian is like a wild animal. This is a great mistake.

Being Indian is not blood as much as it is culture.

The Indian story has never been written. Maybe I am the man to do it.

There are people doing yoga in New York, dancing around; that's the power of India. You go to a nightclub somewhere in Spain and there's Amitabh Bachchan on the screen there, dancing around. That's the power of India. That's the power of Indian people.

I don't like this romanticization of Indian people in which Indian people are looked at as spiritual saviors, as people who have always taken care of the land. We're human beings. But I think different cultures have developed different aspects of humanness.

The Indian was a religious man from his mother's womb.

The more we study the Indian's character the more we appreciate the marked distinction between the civilized being and the real savage.

Nobody who has done business in any country with an Indian would doubt the shrewdness of Indians, but what Indian people bring to the world is something special and unique, which is the capacity for a loving interaction.

I think that there's so many levels of what is appropriate for an Indian woman to do.
