whatever you think that you will be. if you think yourself weak, weak you will be; if you think yourself strong, you will be.
Swami vivekananda
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in the future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.

Learn Everything that is Good from Others, but bring it in, and in your own way absorb it; do not become others.

Was there ever a more horrible blasphemy than the statement that all the knowledge of God is confined to this or that book? How dare men call God infinite, and yet try to compress Him within the covers of a little book!

Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable.

The fire that warms us can also consume us; it is not the fault of the fire.

The great secret of true success, of true happiness, is this: the man or woman who asks for no return, the perfectly unselfish person, is the most successful.
Swami vivekananda
All power is within you; you can do anything and everything. Believe in that, do not believe that you are weak; do not believe that you are half-crazy lunatics, as most of us do nowadays. You can do any thing and everything, without even the guidance of any one. Stand up and express the divinity within you.
Swami vivekananda
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.
Swami vivekananda
Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life; dream of it; think of it; live on that idea. Let the brain, the body, 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, and this is the way great spiritual giants are produced.
