Teacher’s Day, celebrated with much fervour all across schools, colleges, and educational institutions in India, falls on September 5. Students put up special performances, plays and host elaborate shows for their beloved teachers to make them feel special on their day. It is believed that when Dr Radhakrishnan assumed the Presidential office, former students of his came to visit him and requested him if they could celebrate his birthday with them. Dr Radhakrishnan instead suggested that it would be a great honour for him if people observed September 5 as Teachers’ Day each year.
He has famously said, “the true teachers are those who help us think for ourselves.”
Indeed, teachers are inspirational, teachers are wise, and they’re one of the first mentors in a child’s life. It’s highly possible that we all have that one teacher in our life who has given you some grounded advice that still comes in handy in different ways. Ever found yourself comparing any onscreen characters to the ones we have met in real-life? Say Robin Williams as the inspirational professor in Dead Poets’ Society who taught about seizing the day and living life to the fullest or Shah Rukh Khan in Mohabbatein who was part-teacher, part-friend to his students teaching the importance of music and love in order to live a fulfilling life. It’s hard to forget the hard taskmaster in JK Simmons from Whiplash or the warm-hearted Aamir Khan in Taare Zameen Par who melted even the coldest of hearts.
One of our favourites, to this day remains the epitome of kindness, Professor Dumbledore whose guidance and magical backing helped Harry see the truth about his existence and find his true purpose. He spoke about the choices we make in book (and movie) number 2 Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, “It is not our abilities that show what we truly are... it is our choices.” Finally, there always will be Master Yoda who believes “Do, or do not. There is no try.”
Here are a few quotes and messages you can share with your favourite teachers to bring a smile on their faces, this Teacher’s Day:
