The logical man must either deny all miracles or none, and our American Indian myths and hero stories are perhaps, in themselves, quite as credible as those of the Hebrews of old. ↗

Unless India stands up to the world, no one will respect us. In this world, fear has no place. Only strength respects strength. ↗
