Teacher’s Day 2022: Inspirational quotes by Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan on education

Sir Radhakrishnan also authored the book, The Philosophy of Rabindranath Tagore. He held a master’s degree in philosophy and played a huge role in placing Indian philosophy on the global map. He had a long academic career and taught at Chennai’s Presidency College and Calcutta University, and even served as the vice chancellor of Andhra Pradesh University (from 1931-1936). He also taught Eastern Religions and Ethics at Oxford from 1936, a position he held for 16 years.

So as we celebrate Teachers’ Day this year, we bring to you some of Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan’s inspiring quotes to mark his glory.

1. “Books are the means by which we build bridges between cultures.”
2. “When we think we know, we cease to learn.”
3. “Teachers should be the best minds in the country.”
4. “It takes centuries to make a little history; it takes centuries of history to make a tradition.”
5. “Instead of celebrating my birthday, it would be my proud privilege if 5 September is observed as Teachers’ Day.”

Here’s wishing you all a very Happy Teachers’ Day!
