"How can the mind take hold of such a country? Generations of invaders have tried, but they remain in exile. The important towns they build are only retreats, their quarrels the malaise of men who cannot find their way home. India knows of their trouble. She knows of the whole world's trouble, to its uttermost depth. She calls "Come" through her hundred mouths, through objects ridiculous and august. But come to what? She has never defined. She is not a promise, only an appeal."

"Surprising as it may seem, this study indicates that similar conditions are best for all sorts of races."
Diversity
"Curiously enough man's body and his mind appear to differ in their climatic adaptations."
Body
"America forms the longest and straightest bone in the earth's skeleton."
Geography
"According to the now almost universally accepted theory, all the races of mankind had a common origin."
Mankind
"Thus the races, though alike in their physical response to climate, may possibly be different in their mental response because they have approached America by different paths."
