More quotes by Manmohan Singh
Democracies don't go to war.
Manmohan Singh
I believe that without looking at each other as rivals or as competitors, in a democratic India, operating in the framework of an open economy, an open society has, I think, some significance for developing countries, not only in Asia but outside Asia.
Manmohan Singh
As the largest and most developed democracies of Asia (India and Japan), we have a mutual stake in each other's progress and prosperity.
Manmohan Singh
Jawaharlal Nehru wanted India to develop close ties with China and learn from its experience.
Manmohan Singh
Yes, I think India's economy always has been a mixed economy, and by Western standards we are much more of a market economy than a public sector-driven economy.
Manmohan Singh

Manmohan Singh
Meaningful solutions to the problems of mass poverty that prevails in India I believe can only be found in the framework of an expanding economy.
Manmohan Singh
We are a mixed economy. We will remain a mixed economy. The public and private sector will continue to play a very important role. The private sector in our country has very ample scope and I am confident that India's entrepreneurs have the capacity, and the will to rise to the occasion.
Manmohan Singh
Our vision is not just of economic growth, but also of a growth which would improve the life of the common man.
Manmohan Singh
Let me say that I think the economic history of the last 150 years clearly shows that if you want to industrialize a country in a short period, let us say 20 years, and you don't have a well-developed private sector, entrepreneurial class, then central planning is important.
Manmohan Singh
Nobody should be allowed to tinker with democracy. We will not discontinue the good works of the past government.
Manmohan Singh
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
Sachin Tendulkar is a guy you don't want to chat to period, because he will knuckle down- Brett Lee tells you why one must never sledge Sachin Tendulkar It is an amazing achievement to play for the country for over two decades and still continue to be the team's anchor. Sachin makes all of us so very proud
Manmohan Singh
I look upon India-U.S. nuclear cooperation as an act of historic reconciliation.
Manmohan Singh
We should put more money in health. We should put more money in devising credible social safety nets for the poor.
Manmohan Singh
I do recognize that India has to be the center, the hub of activity as far as the knowledge economy is concerned.
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
Capitalism historically has been a very dynamic force, and behind that force is technical progress, innovation, new ideas, new products, new technologies, and new methods of managing teams.
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.
Manmohan Singh
No nation, no society, no community can hold its head high and claim to be part of the civilized world if it condones the practice of discriminating against one half of humanity represented by women.
Manmohan Singh
