 Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, the 11th President of India, was one of the few Indian leaders in contemporary India who was widely admired across every section of society.

He was no less than a universal teacher, for he always loved to be with students, listen to them, talk to them and help them in realizing their dreams.

The great man had several achievements including various awards bestowed upon 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 exiled thoughts and reluctant dreams especially of students, whom he always loved to motivate. And so much was his love for them, that he even breathed his last while he was with one such group.

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

On the occasion of Teacher's Day today, here we bring to some of his famous quotes that have inspired and will continue to inspire generations.
