Ambedkar Jayanti is also known as Bhim Jayanti and is celebrated as a public holiday across India since 2015. On his 132nd birth anniversary this Friday, here are some inspiring quotes by him as we commemorate the memory of Dr Babasaheb Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar to boost our motivation:
- “I measure the progress of a community by the degree of progress which women have achieved.”
- “I like the religion that teaches liberty, equality, and fraternity.”
- “Be educated, be organized, and be agitated.”
- “Cultivation of mind should be the ultimate aim of human existence.”
- “A great man is different from an eminent one in that he is ready to be the servant of the society.”
- “Freedom of mind is the real freedom.”
- “I am proud of my country, India, for having a constitution that enshrines principles of democracy, socialism, and secularism.”
- “Law and order are the medicine of the body politic, and when the body politic gets sick, medicine must be administered.”
- “Life should be great, rather than long.”
- “History shows that where ethics and economics come in conflict, victory is always with economics. Vested interests have never been known to have willingly divested themselves unless there was sufficient force to compel them.”
