"Unless Life is Lived for Others, it is not Worthwhile" - Mother Teresa

"If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one." - Mother Teresa

"Mother Teresa has influenced my Life a lot. I first learnt about her in my High School Life. I am deeply touched by her Life History. I draw my inspiration from her." - Dr. Subrahmanyam Karuturi

"The advancements in medicine, agriculture, science and technology are phenomenal as far as 21st century is concerned. This achievement, however, appears to be abysmal when over a billion people languish in illiteracy and disease and nearly half of the world lives on a meager less than Rs.100 a day. There is certainly a strong link between literacy and poverty. I believe in the philosophy that if you give a man fish, you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. This effort by Kify Foundation is merely a drop in ocean with a gigantic task ahead." - Dr.Subrahmanyam Karuturi

"He is my light, my mentor, my driving force, my inspiration, my father. My father used to tell me that unless you immerse yourself in hard work beyond the capacity of an ordinary human being, you cant reach a top position in your life. He worked very hard from being a son of an ordinary farmer  to his present position as a top lecturer in Chemistry worshipped by his students. What I like the most is that he set a good example and taught me how to live as a decent human being." - Dr. Subrahmanyam Karuturi

Steve Jobs 

“Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.” - Steve Jobs

“Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.” - Steve Jobs

“Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations. ” - Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs is undeniably an extraordinary man by any standard. He has left his mark on no less than five industries: personal computers with Apple II and Macintosh, music with iPod and iTunes, phone with iPhone, and animation with Pixar. The middle-class hippie kid with no college education that he was built a computer empire and became a multi-millionaire in a few years, was fired from his own company before coming back a decade later to save it and turn it into one of the world’s most influential corporations, with millions of fans around the world. He has also contributed to the creation of the new leader in animated movies for decades to come. He has been called a fluke for years, but is now widely acknowledged as one the world’s most eminent business executives and an unrivaled visionary. He has changed millions of lives by making technology easy-to-use, exciting and beautiful.… And you know what the best part is? He’s not done yet. (Romain Moisescot)
