“It is Science alone that can solve the
problems of hunger and poverty, in-sanitation and illiteracy, of superstition
and deadening customs and tradition, of vast resources running waste, of a rich
country inhabited by the starving people. Who indeed could afford to ignore
Science today? At every turn we have to seek its aid. The future belongs
to Science and to those who make Friends with Science.”
- Jawaharlal Nehru
