Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Republic of Turkey, in his speeches in different parts of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey and in different parts of the country, has said many words that guide us. Atatürk’s words are universal thoughts that remain valid today. Atatürk, who openly declared his ideas in almost every field, stated that by ensuring the continuation of the republic he founded and keeping the peace and prosperity of the homeland and the nation above all else, the prosperity in the social sense can be achieved by joining hands and working hard as a nation.
He considered peace as a whole and emphasised the importance of world peace by saying peace at home and peace in the world. Pointing out that the most real guide in the world is science, he showed the Turkish nation the road map to follow by saying that wherever there is science and science and specialisation, wherever there is industry, we are obliged to go and learn.
In short, Atatürk had many words about the Republic, independence, national sovereignty, art and artists, sports, religion and secularism, Turkish women, democracy, freedom, science and technology, Turkish agriculture, press ethics and principles, Turkish language, economy, nationalism, Turkish youth, Turkish army, Turkish nation, teachers, foreign and domestic policy, modernity and civilisation, national struggle and Parliament, culture, education and training. Atatürk’s Words shed light on our future today as it was yesterday and enlightens our tomorrows.
