Synopsis

Wings of Fire: An Autobiography is an inspirational and motivational book that tells the life story of Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam. The book is divided into seven parts and begins with an Introduction and Preface. It is followed by Orientation which contains a quote from Atharva Veda. Later, the chapters highlight the early life, school, background and professional life of Dr. Kalam. It also provides an insight to the visions he had for his country and its people. The book contains 24 pictures taken at different times in the life of Dr. Kalam.

Excerpts from the Book

Here are some of the most enduring lines that Dr. Kalam penned down in his autobiography:

“Dream is not that which you see while sleeping, it is something that does not let you sleep”

“Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts”

“We are all born with a divine fire in us. Our efforts should be to give wings to this fire and fill the world with the glow of its goodness.”
