India [Theme]

Gazes unknown to us.

In India, sometimes you have to give in to get what you want.

I was in Bangalore, India's Silicon Valley, when I realized that the world was flat.

In Singapore, we managed to make mistakes. For example, in the quest to rebuild the city we ruthlessly destroyed many old and solid buildings. We came to realize that not only destroy their own cultural heritage, but also destroy the unique traits of Singapore, which attract tourists. However, we are never interested in wanton destruction. And because we launched the program for restoration and preservation of ethnic neighborhoods such as Chinatown, Little India, Kampong Glam and the district with the charming mansions of the era of colonization. [...] Their value from the point of view of architecture, culture and tourism cannot be expressed in dollars and cents.

When on the world market there are such a huge country like India (billion people) and China (one billion and three hundred million inhabitants), but in addition to them the Eastern Europe and Soviet Russia (together - half a billion inhabitants), our position among the competitors is changing. Millions more active, more resourceful and hungry people ready to compete with us.
This race we can win only through better education and skills, as well as more flexible and secure environment for investment, which promotes professionalism, safety, and peaceful development of industry, environment, bringing investors a fair profit. In the end this is what matters.

India always changes people...

I grew up in India. On the tree in front of my grandmother's house hung the severed head of a chicken. I once asked: "Why, why?" "To repel ghosts". In those places were so accepted.

I don't know what is this, an interrogation?
- No, just curiosity. Cool.
- What's "cool"? Nothing cool, like the war, the terrible poverty. As in the war. Deprivation, suffering and poor hygiene.

- I wrote a novel and worked as... a volunteer... in India.
- Amazing!
- Yes, this is the period in life where eat, pray, and suffer from diarrhea.

as ashamed of their dark,
intolerant of other people's mud:
India heals instantly from
false ego shit and the sea.
everywhere God. you homonym.
it's temples and altars.
and inside you.

Indian actors, the best in the world, because Indians know how to cry eyes.

I'm sorry, but I don't have all the ingredients for tea masala.
- Don't worry about it.
- Well, of course. You're upset about Emily and you're Indian, I should make you some tea masala. So I have everything except cardamom seeds. Do you have their no chance?
- Sorry, I left them in my turban.
- Then I'll make you tea. They destroyed your culture, so feel the same.

Maybe I'll even get used to the storm horns and shouting vendors. Is there on Earth a place where our perception is subjected to such an onslaught? Those who know this country, living as if nothing had happened. But nothing can prepare those who have no experience, this riot of noise and colors, to heat, confusion, ubiquitous to countless crowds.

You know, she's right, Lin, - said Carl. Here India. There were people from all over the country but Bombay is not India. Bombay - a separate world. The real India is far away.
