Scientist, president, mentor - Dr APJ Abdul Kalam is remembered for his contributions to the country in many roles.
Popularly remembered as 'People's President' and 'Missile Man', Dr Kalam's demise on July 27, 2015 left the nation in shock and pain.
The humble president was a great scientist, an inspiring leader, and above anything else, he was a simple and a very strong human being. His speeches and interactions, particularly with students, inspired millions. His quotes and lectures motivated, encouraged and inspired the youth to strive to fulfill their dreams. And by sharing his experiences with young minds, he would ignite the wings of fire among them to work hard and achieve their dreams.
His death left a void in the lives of everyone he had touched with his simplicity and warmth.
Conferred with India's highest civilian honour Bharat Ratna, Dr Kalam was instrumental in India's civilian space program and military missile development efforts. He also played a pivotal organizational and political role in India's Pokhran-II nuclear tests in 1998.
Today on his first death anniversary, we take a look at some of his inspiring quotes:
"You have to dream before your dreams come true"
"Look at the sky we are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work"
"Man needs his difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy success"
"Thinking should become your capital asset, no matter whatever ups and downs you come across in you life"
"When you speak, speak the truth; perform when you promise; discharge your trust. Withhold your hands from striking, and from taking that which is unlawful and bad".
"Don't take rest after your first victory because if you fail in the second, more lips are waiting to say that your first victory was just luck".
If you want to shine like a sun, first burn like a sun".
He was one of the greatest visionary leaders India has ever had. And he always had his opinion on any topic - be it religion, sports, leadership, corruption, science or the death penalty.
His words will forever be etched in the hearts of the millions who admire him.
