"In India the monsoon is predictably unpredictable. It will come, but it can arrive coyly, even gently, teasing with thunderstorms. Rains can skip entire regions. It can rain for days, even weeks, until the earth is squirming with life and walls are slippery with mildew."
—Text from "Monsoons: Life Breath of Half the World," December 1984, National Geographic magazine
