“All nationalisms are at heart deeply concerned with names: with the most immaterial and original human invention. Those who dismiss names as a detail have never been displaced; but the peoples on the peripheries are always being displaced. That is why they insist upon their continuity—their links with their dead and the unborn.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
“India has 2,000,000 gods, and worships them all. In religion other countries are paupers; India is the only millionaire.”

—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
“The light that shined upon the summit now seems almost to shine at our feet.”
