Quotes by Bibek Debroy  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“He (Abhimanyu) picked up a chariot wheel and angrily rushed at Drona. His limbs blazed because of the dust raised by the wheels. He was radiant with the chariot wheel raised high in his arms. In that battle, for a short while, Abhimanyu looked beautiful and seemed to replicate the deeds of Vasudeva.”
Bibek Debroy, The Mahabharata

“As with the Mahabharata, the Valmiki Ramayana is a smriti text. It has a human origin and composer, it is not a shruti text. Smriti texts are society and context specific.”
Bibek Debroy, The Valmiki Ramayana Vol. 1

“Deep and liquid markets in a country’s domestic economy are the essential shock absorbers through which the perilous waters of international financial integration can be navigated.”
Bibek Debroy, Getting India Back on Track: An Action Agenda for Reform
