Swami Vivekananda Quotes

«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, that is way great spiritual giants are produced.»
«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 future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.»
«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.»
«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.»
«The goal of mankind is knowledge ... Now this knowledge is inherent in man. No knowledge comes from outside: it is all inside. What we say a man 'knows', should, in strict psychological language, be what he 'discovers' or 'unveils'; what man 'learns' is really what he discovers by taking the cover off his own soul, which is a mine of infinite knowledge.»
«We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.»
«Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.»
«You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself.»
«The first sign of your becoming religious is that you are becoming cheerful»
«The world is the great gymnasium where we come to make ourselves strong.»
