The mind is but the subtle part of the body. You must retain great strength in your mind and words. ~ Swami Vivekananda
When one works with concentration, losing all consciousness of oneself, the work that is done will be infinitely better. - Swami Vivekananda
Be positive, do not criticise others. Give your message: teach what you have to teach and there stop. The Lord knows the rest.
We may talk and reason all our lives but we shall not understand a word of truth until we experience it. - Swami Vivekananda
If faith in ourselves had been more extensively taught and practiced, I am sure a very large portion of the evils and miseries that we have would have vanished.
Matter is your servant, not you the servant of matter. - Swami Vivekananda
If you like me then I am in your heart. If you hate me I am in your mind. Swami Vivekananda
Before you start some work, always ask yourself three questions - Why am I doing it, What the results might be and Will I be successful...Only when you think deeply and find satisfactory answers to these questions, go ahead
Strength is life, weakness is death. Strength is felicity, life eternal, immortal. Weakness is constant strain and misery. - Swami Vivekananda
