Swami Vivekanand's Quotes:
When an idea exclusively occupies the mind, it is transformed into an actual physical or mental state.
Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
All differences in this world are of degree, and not of kind, because oneness is the secret of everything.
All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.
Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
External nature is only internal nature writ large.
Don't look back—forward, infinite energy, infinite enthusiasm, infinite daring, and infinite patience—then alone can great deeds be accomplished
Stand up, be bold, be strong. Take the whole responsibility on your own shoulders, and know that you are the creator of your own destiny. All the strength and succor you want is within yourselves. Therefore, make your own future.
Never think there is anything impossible for the soul. It is the greatest heresy to think so. If there is sin, this is the only sin; to say that you are weak, or others are weak.
