"...Our mission in every part of this vast continent is the same; it is to spread the light of education to every nook and corner, to dispel the darkness of ignorance and superstition from human heart. Our problems in this benighted land where 70% people are still illiterate are also the same and we must unite across the restrictive state frontiers in our fight for better education to the teeming millions of our countrymen and for better working conditions for millions of teacher and other educational workers in the country".
"... Education has not been brought closer to life. It is still being pursued in an ivory tower atmosphere and while it imparts some dead bits of knowledge and leads to cramming. It does not prepare the educands for the struggle of life and for accelerating the progress and prosperity of the country. The iron curtains round the educational institutions should immediately be broken and they should be made centers of the community activities and the education of the country should be brought in close and constant touch with the struggles of the people in the society, in the fields and the factories."
