Victor Cousin,
French Philosopher
(1792-1867):
"When we read the poetical and philosophical monuments of the East –
above all, those of India,
which are beginning to spread in Europe –
we discover there many a truth,
and truths so profound,
and which make such a contrast with the meanness of the results at which European genius has sometimes stopped,
that we are constrained to bend the knee before the philosophy of the East,
and to see in this cradle of the human race the native land of the highest philosophy.“
