Manmohan Singh
The United States and India can work together.
Manmohan Singh
Jawaharlal Nehru wanted India to develop close ties with China and learn from its experience.

I should like to express our profound gratitude to the Americans of Indian origin. The way they have conducted themselves, the way they have worked hard to carve out a niche for themselves in the Silicon Valley, I think this has also given America a new idea about what India is capable of.
Manmohan Singh
The Chinese have certain advantages. The fact that it's a single party government. But I do believe in the long run the fact that India is a functioning democracy committed to the rule of law. Our system is slow to move but I'm confident that once decisions are taken they are going to be far more durable.

China is very important. The future growth of China, China's influence is bound to rise.

India's future lies in being an open society, an open polity, a functioning democracy respecting all fundamental human freedoms, accepting the rule of law and, at the same time, to emerge as a successful, internationally competitive market economy.
Manmohan Singh
The Indian economy grew at 5.5 percent, but if you look at the last 30 years - for example, 1960 to 1985 - the progress made by East Asian countries was phenomenal. In a single generation they had been able to transform the character of their economy. They were able to get rid of chronic poverty.
Manmohan Singh
I think whatever I've done, I hope I've earned a footnote in India's long and tortuous history.
Manmohan Singh
We need multiculturalism, respect for diversity, tolerance, respect for diverse faiths.
Manmohan Singh
The emergence of India as a major global power is an idea whose time has come. This is a legitimate ambition for China. This is a legitimate ambition for India. And the challenge for the humanity is to evolve a world system in which the legitimate ambitions of both our countries can find constructive expression without threatening anybody else.
Manmohan Singh
I do believe that the future of civilization belongs to those who would lay emphasis on working together instead of talking about clash of civilizations.
Manmohan Singh
So outside agriculture, in manufacturing and services, we must create a lot more jobs. But that also means that we must ensure that our systems of general education and technical education are in line with the job requirements that a more modern manufacturing and a more modern services sector would require.
Manmohan Singh
I don't see, I think, any problems between India and the United States.
Manmohan Singh
If we have access to nuclear energy, that adds to our maneuverability in ensuring energy security as India marches on, on the path to accelerated development.
