The reason we have poverty is that we have no imagination. There are a great many people accumulating what they think is vast wealth, but it's only money... they don't know how to enjoy it, because they have no imagination.
I don't think people give Indian society enough credit. We may not like to talk much about things but we do, basically, want to live and let live.

I think being an athlete prepares you for more things than people give us credit for.
