Shashi Tharoor Returned Quotations

I returned to India because I believe in an India of honesty and hard work, not of corruption and crookedness. I believe in an India of openness and straightforwardness, not of hypocrisy and double-dealing. I believe in an India where opportunities are available to all, and not just to a chosen few.

I returned to India after long years of international service, because I had always cherished the desire to make a difference in my own country.
