More from Swami Vivekananda

  1. Give me few men and women who are pure and selfless and I shall shake the world
  2. Condemn none: if you can stretch out a helping hand, do so. If you cannot, fold your hands, bless your brothers, and let them go their own …
  3. Education is the manifestation of perfection present already in man
  4. This life is short, the vanities of the world are transient, but they alone live who live for others, the rest are more dead than alive.
  5. Take up an idea, devote yourself to it, struggle on in patience, and the sun will rise for you.
  6. When we really begin to live in the world, then we understand what is meant by brotherhood or mankind, and not before.
  7. We must overcome difficulty by constant practice. We must learn that nothing can happen to us unless we make ourselves susceptible to it.
  8. External nature is only internal nature writ large.
