A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
The most important question in the world is, ‚Why is the child crying?‘
I am not one who was born in the possession of knowledge; I am one who is fond of antiquity, and earnest in seeking it there.
Conservatism discards Prescription, shrinks from Principle, disavows Progress; having rejected all respect for antiquity, it offers no redress for the present, and makes no preparation for the future.
A great value of antiquity lies in the fact that its writings are the only ones that modern men still read with exactness.
