Quotes:

Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: [showing Lady Esketh the Maharajah's summer palace] That's a Rembrandt. That's a Buddhist prayer wheel.

Major Rama Safti: [translating Hindu song] "Would my lyre were of jade, its strings of pure-spun gold, that I might sing with merit of your beauty... in your heart my love has found a home, and it can never die..."

Lady Edwina Esketh: You sober enough to take me to the party?::Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: [taking a drink] Almost.

Lady Edwina Esketh: Some night you're going to fall flat on your face and people will begin to suspect you drink.

Mrs. Simon: It's my last tea this season. We'll be leaving for Simla before the rains. You'll be going too, of course?::Lily Hoggett-Egburry: Naturally. No one stays in Ranchipur during the monsoon.::Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: No? Only about five million people.

Maharani: What is Lady Esketh doing at the hospital?::Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: Every conceivable filthy and drudging task.::Maharani: Yes, I suppose Miss MacDaid would have seen to that.

Lady Edwina Esketh: I've been hearing dreadful things about you. It seems you've become a shockingly useful citizen.

Major Rama Safti: The world's not as bad as you think, Tom.::Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: No? Only trying to commit suicide as fast as it knows how.::Major Rama Safti: I don't agree with you. Here in Ranchipur we're trying to make it a little better.::Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: The whole world?::Major Rama Safti: OUR world - India in general, Ranchipur in particular.::Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: I rather like the old place, just as it is.::Major Rama Safti: You see it as an artist. I see it as an Indian. My people are crying for help. After centuries of disease and poverty and superstition.

Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: I hope I'm not keeping you from your guests.::Fern Simon: Oh, they're not *my* guests. That's mother's idea of "high society." They're all excited because YOU'RE here.::Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: Really? Should I be flattered?::Fern Simon: They say dreadful things about you...::Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: [playfully whispers] What sort of things?::Fern Simon: That you're a drunkard, and a bounder, and a remittance man... They'll hang around you just the same, because your father was an earl.

Thomas 'Tom' Ransome: [Describing Ranchipur to Lady Edwina Esketh] See, in Ranchipur, the important things in life are the elemental things, such as crops, starvation, and weather. In Europe, when someone says "It looks like rain," in all probability, he's trying to make polite conversation. But here, where people die as easily as they're born, they're speaking in terms of life and death. You'll see what I mean, if you're still here when the rains come. You'll see them overnight turn the fields, the gardens and the jungles from a parched and burning desert, into a mass of green that seems to live, to writhe and to devour the walls, the trees and the houses.
