Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That's its balance." |

| "In the Hindu religion, one can[not] have freedom of speech. A Hindu must surrender his freedom of speech. He must act according to the Vedas. If the Vedas do not support the actions, instructions must be sought from the Smritis, and if the Smritis fail to provide any such instructions, he must follow in the footsteps of the great men. He is not supposed to reason. Hence, so long as you are in the Hindu religion, you cannot expect to have freedom of thought" |
| -B.R. Ambedkar |
| 1. You have to dream before your dreams can come true. |
| 2. Man needs his difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy success. Great dreams of great dreamers are always transcended. |
| 3. To succeed in your mission, you must have single-minded devotion to your goal. |
| 4. We should not give up and we should not allow the problem to defeat us. Those who cannot work with their hearts achieve but a hollow, half-hearted success that breeds bitterness all around. In India we only read about death, sickness, terrorism, crime. |
| 5. We have not invaded anyone. We have not conquered anyone. We have not grabbed their land, their culture, their history and tried to enforce our way of life on them. Look at the sky. We are not alone. |
| 6. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work. Climbing to the top demands strength, whether it is to the top of Mount Everest or to the top of your career. |
| -A. P. J. Abdul Kalam |
| 11th President of India & Scientist. |
| "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it." |
| -Steve Jobs |
