Quote by Sally Andrew

“I was leafing through a new batch of letters. The fan on the ceiling was going round and round. It was like an oven with a termafan. Jessie, Hattie and I were all being evenly baked as we sat at our desks.”

“Ooh! The firm, moist texture and flavor of the yuba... ... suits the gratin's white sauce made with lots of milk and butter!" "Yuba, a traditional Japanese food... ...perfectly matches the sauce in the gratin, which is a Western dish!" "I made the white sauce with flour, butter and milk... ... and added chopped onions, sliced mushrooms and yuba cut into bite-sized pieces. I brought the white sauce to a boil after seasoning it with salt and pepper. Then I placed that inside a gratin dish, covered it with grated cheese and baked it in the oven until it turned golden brown." "Wow. I don't believe it." "I never thought yuba and white sauce would taste good together. But come to think of it, yuba is basically soy protein." "It has a rich yet simple taste... ...so I guess it goes well with any kind of dish." "I know I'm contradicting myself... ...but this is light and heavy at the same time! Yuba is made from soy milk, and white sauce is made from regular milk. Both beverages are very good for the human body. So it's no surprise that they come together to make such a delicious flavor in yuba gratin.”

“Universal healthcare, free education, access to decent and affordable housing, safe working conditions, and occupations that provide a sense of fulfillment and meaning are all pretty basic and fundamental concerns, yet, for far too many of us, what are really relatively unambitious requirements have become aspirations we can only dream of.”

“Our current privatized and fragmented commodity-based healthcare system costs more than public healthcare for other countries around the world. I must repeat this; we are already paying for the cost of Universal Health Care and then some.”

“I am pain-stricken to say, since the moment I was born, I have found nothing extraordinary in this ancient land of greatness to be exceptionally proud of. I am not a proud Indian. India at its present condition has given me no reason to feel proud. However, I do feel proud of the ancient Indians, just like I feel proud of the ancient Greeks, the Mayans, the ancient Egyptians, the Babylonians and so on. Scientists are beyond borders, just like the ancient scientists of India, whom you prefer to call as sages.”

“Love needs no passport, no translation. It is the language we all understand, the bond we all deserve, and the bridge we all can build.”

“At most periods of her history India, though a cultural unit, has been torn by internecine war. In statecraft her rulers were cunning and unscrupulous. Famine, flood and plague visited her from time to time, and killed millions of her people. Inequality of birth was given religious sanction, and the lot of the humble was generally hard. Yet our overall impression is that in no other part of the [Page 9] ancient world were the relations of man and man, and of man and the state, so fair and humane. In no other early civilization were slaves so few in number, and in no other ancient lawbook are their rights so well protected as in the Arthaśāstra (p. 152f). No other ancient lawgiver proclaimed such noble ideals of fair play in battle as did Manu (p. 126). In all her history of warfare Hindu India has few tales to tell of cities put to the sword or of the massacre of noncombatants. The ghastly sadism of the kings of Assyria, who flayed their captives alive, is completely without parallel in ancient India. There was sporadic cruelty and oppression no doubt, but, in comparison with conditions in other early cultures, it was mild. To us the most striking feature of ancient Indian civilization is its humanity.”
