Odunlade Adekola Quote’s

“One should never get tired of seeking knowledge because the world is dynamic and ever-changing.”

“After learning for a period, it is only normal to celebrate your efforts. It is a wonderful thing to start a project and finish it; because not everyone is able to do that.”

“Knowledge gathering is a continuous process; it never stops.”

“As we grow older, we realise that challenges are only normal things that happen as one progresses in life.”

“There is always a price to pay for whatever you want to achieve in life.”

“…whatever the government does not support would have a hard time succeeding.”

“If one is not appreciated where he comes from, it would be hard for outsiders to support you.”

“People have different interests and what they look out for. That a woman makes up her face or uses jewelry doesn’t mean she’s not a wife material.”

“If you think you have not made it today to your expectation, check what you are doing. If you are good with it, keep doing it.”

“Talent is incomparable.”.
