10 enlightening quotes from Dr. Abdul Kalam

In memory of this great master, here are some of his famous quotes that are relevant for teachers and students -

1) Creativity is the key to success in the future and primary education where teachers can bring creativity in children at this level.

2) Excellence is an ongoing process and not an accident.

3) One of the very important characteristics of a student is the question. Let the students ask questions.

4) educators should strengthen the capacity of the spirit of inquiry, creativity, entrepreneurial leadership and morality among students and become their role model.

5) If a country is to be free of corruption and become a nation of wits, I firmly believe that there are three key societal members who can make a difference. They are the father, mother and teacher.

6) If you want to shine like the sun, first as a burning sun.

7) You have to dream before your dreams can come true.

8) When we tackle the obstacles we find hidden reserves of courage and resilience that we did not know we had. And it is only when we are faced with the failure we realize that these resources were still there in us. We just need to find them and move on with our lives.

9) Do not take rest after your first win because if you fail in the second, the more the lips are waiting to say your first win was a fluke.

10) Be more determined to make solid achievements in chasing the fast but synthetic happiness. Without your involvement, you can not succeed. With your participation, you can not fail.

 If Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan is the person whose memory we celebrate Teacher's Day, until recently a teacher was pampered by the student community of today. Yes, it was the late Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, the 11th President of India, who left for his heavenly abode a few weeks ago, on July 27th 2015.

 It was no less than a universal teaching, for he has always loved being with students, listen to them, talk to them and help them realize their dreams.

 The great man had several achievements, including various awards conferred on him for his rich contributions. However, despite all this, he lived a simple life lush only with great thoughts.

 Most of his words gave wings to thought in exile and dreams reluctant particularly students, he always loved to motivate. And such was his love for them, he even breathed his last while he was with such a group.

 Apart from his great deeds, his legacy now includes some of his unforgettable words too.
