My favourite legend is Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, who was the eleventh President of India and a great scientist. His way of life inspires me a lot. Although he was from a poor fishing family, he achieved many goals as a scientist, university professor and president of India, by working hard. He loved to plant trees to protect the environment. His quotes are relevant even in current times. One of his quotes is about dreaming. “Dream is not the thing you see in sleep but is that thing that doesn't let you sleep.” This quote inspires not only me, but also those who like to achieve their goals. Even though Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam has passed away, he still lives in our hearts.
