12. Views of Imperialism “For Europe to rule Asia by force for purposes of gain, and to justify that rule by the pretense that she is civilizing Asia and raising her to a higher level of spiritual life, will be adjudged by history, perhaps, to be the crowning wrong and folly of imperialism. What Asia has to give, her priceless stores of wisdom garnered from her experience of ages, we refuse to take; the much or little which we could give we spoil by the brutal manner of our giving. This is what imperialism has done, and is doing, for Asia.” - J.A. Hobson (British journalist)

13. Views of Imperialism “To sum up the whole, the British rule has been – morally, a great blessing; politically peace and order on one hand, blunders on the other, materially, impoverishment….The natives call the British system “Sakar ki Churi,” the knife of sugar. That is to say there is no oppression, it is all smooth and sweet, but it is the knife, notwithstanding. I mention this that you should know these feelings. Our great misfortune is that you do not know our wants. When you will know our real wishes, I have not the least doubt that you would do justice. The genius and spirit of the British people is fair play and justice.” - Dadabhai Naoroji (1 st Indian elected to British Parliament & part of founding of Indian National Congress)
