"there is no place of politics in education. The moment you let politics invade your education system, you inadvertently welcome chaos into the future of young India.

"To the traditional Indians, terms such as “intercourse”, “penis”, “vagina”, “clitoris”, “semen”, “masturbation”, “breasts”, etc. are exclusive possessions of the night.

"Infinite patience, infinite purity and infinite perseverance are the key elements of achieving your desired goal."
"I do not believe in a Science that cannot wipe the tears of a widow, or bring a piece of bread to the starving mouth of an orphan. However sophisticated may be the scientific achievements, however well-spun may be the philosophy behind them, I do not call them Science, unless they are put to practice in the pursuit of easing the sufferings of the human society."
"Education is the foundation of all human endeavors. It is the most noble of all the elements of human consciousness."
"The overload of useless ceremonials and worship have crippled the whole nation. If you want to do good to your nation and yourself, then throw away your ancient ceremonials as far as possible."
