"The best education is that which teaches us that the end of knowledge is service.

This "service" is another name for love and fellowship, which constitute the very essence of personal and social life. Love and fellowship bring with them peace, gentle­ness and humility, – basic values of life whose significance has been repeatedly stressed by the sages and prophets of India and the world."
