	Kalam was a dedicated teacher and identified himself foremost in that role before anything else. His love for students, finds best voice when he said, ''"Dream, Dream, Dream, Dreams transform into thoughts. And thoughts result in action."'' He had famously said that teachers are the builders of society and the society can be built only when the students are made proficient in their subjects. He further added that they have to provide a vision for life to the students and also inculcate the fundamentals of values which they should practice in years to come.
