C. N. R. Rao - Family Quotes
4 Sourced Quotes
We couldn't afford many things, but we had education. My father was a headmaster and later became an education officer. My mother was fantastic: she always told me, 'Do what you want.' She gave me total freedom, in fact both my parents did. But I really owe it to my mother. When I said I will go to Banaras (Varanasi) to study, she said, 'You want to go to Banaras? Ok, go.' She would say, 'Don't worry about money, reading is most important, read and then everything will come.' My family was very open. Thanks to them I'm what I am today. I am the only child of my parents, so is my wife.C. N. R. Rao
