We do not look at our own faults; the eyes do not see themselves, they see the eyes of everybody else. We human beings are very slow to recognise our own weakness, our own faults, so long as we can lay the blame upon somebody else (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Just as the body has its progress and decadence, so also has the mind, and, therefore, the mind is not the soul, because the soul can neither decay nor degenerate (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)

Some may be helped by images, some may not. Some require an image outside, others one inside the brain (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Charity is great, but the moment you say it is all, you run the risk of running into materialism (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
If there be no eternal life, still the enjoyment of spiritual thoughts as ideals is keener and makes a man happier, whilst the foolery of materialism leads to competition and undue ambition and ultimate death, individual and national (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Even forgiveness, if weak and passive, is not true: fight is better. Forgive when you could bring legions of angels to the victory (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Forgive offences by the million. And if you love all unselfishly, all will by degrees come to love one another (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
What can be my highest idea of forgiveness? Nothing beyond myself. Which of you can jump out of your own bodies? Which of you can jump out of your own minds? Not one of you (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
A monk is not forbidden to marry, but if he takes a wife she becomes a monk with the same powers and privileges and occupies the same social position as her husband (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Just as man must have liberty to think and speak, so he must have liberty in food, dress, and marriage, and in every other thing, so long as he does not injure others (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Marriage is not for individual happiness, but for the welfare of the nation and the caste (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
The natural ambition of woman is through marriage to climb up, leaning upon a man; but those days are gone. You shall be great without the help of any man, just as you are (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
What is marriage but the renunciation of unchastity? The savage does not marry. Man marries because he renounces (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
The ideal person is he who, in the midst of the greatest silence and solitude, finds the intensest activity, and in the midst of the intensest activity finds the silence and solitude of the desert (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Spirituality as a science, as a study, is the greatest and healthiest exercise that the human mind can have (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Prana is the driving power of the world, and can be seen in every manifestation of life (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
The finer the instrument, the greater the power. The mind is much finer and more powerful than the body (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
The same power is in every man, the one manifesting more, the other less; the same potentiality is in everyone (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
There is no power on earth which can be kept long confined within a narrow limit. It cannot be kept compressed too long to allow of expansion at a subsequent period (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)

What we call powers, secrets of nature, and force, are all within. In the external world are only a series of changes (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Whenever power is used for evil, it becomes diabolical; it must be used for good only (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
By practice men can bring even the heart under control, until it will just beat at will, slowly, or quickly, or almost stop. Nearly every part of the body can be brought under control (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Practice is absolutely necessary. You may sit down and listen to me by the hour every day, but if you do not practice, you will not get one step further. It all depends on practice (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Through faithful practice, layer after layer of the mind opens before us, and each reveals new facts to us (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
To get any reason out of the mass of incongruity we call human life, we have to transcend our reason, but we must do it scientifically, slowly, by regular practice, and we must cast off all superstition (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
Consciously or unconsciously, health can be transmitted. A very strong man, living with a weak man, will make him a little stronger, whether he knows it or not (Swami Vivekananda Quotes)
