“The Kashmiri Brahmins are quite High- Aryan in the type of their features - very fair and handsome, with high chiseled features, and no trace of intermixture of the blood of any lower race. As a body they excel in acuteness the same number of any other race with whom they come in contact.” - George Campbell.

"Their intellectual superiority over the rest of the population must be admitted. Some of them are very superior, trustworthy, honest, clear-headed and industrious.” - Dr. Ernest Neve.
