Shri Ramakrishna use to say, As Long as I Live, so long do I learn. That man or that society which has nothing to learn is already in the jaws of death.

More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Brave, bold men, these are what we want. What we want is vigour in the blood, strength in the nerves, iron muscles and nerves of steel, not softening namby-pamby ideas.
Swami Vivekananda
All love is expansion, all selfishness is contraction. Love is therefore the only law of life. He who loves lives, he who is selfish is dying. Therefore love for love's sake, because it is the only law of life, just as you breathe to live.
Swami Vivekananda
In these days of intellectual awakening and steadily asserting public opinion, the holy places of the Hindus, their condition, and method of work have not escaped tile keen eye of criticism and this city, being the holy of holies to all Hindus, has not failed to attract its full share of censure.
Swami Vivekananda
Today the West is awakening to its wants and the true self of man and spirit is the watchword of the advanced school of Western theologians. The student of Sanskrit philosophy knows where the wind is blowing from, but it matters not whence the power comes so longs as it brings new life.
Swami Vivekananda
Out of Mahat comes universal egoism.
Swami Vivekananda
In one word, this ideal is that you are divine.
Swami Vivekananda
Know that every time you feel weak, you not only hurt yourself but also the cause. Infinite faith and strength are the only conditions of success.
Swami Vivekananda
Where you find the attraction for lust and wealth considerably diminished, to whatever creed he may belong, know that his inner spirit is awakening.
Swami Vivekananda
Never turn back to see the result of what you have done. Give all to the Lord and go on, and think not of it.
Swami Vivekananda
Do not blame any supernatural being, neither be hopeless and despondent, nor think we are in a place from which we can never escape unless someone comes and lends us a helping hand.
Swami Vivekananda
To give up the world is to forget the ego, to know it not at all - living in the body, but not of it.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything can be sacrificed for truth, but truth cannot be sacrificed for anything.
Swami Vivekananda
I fervently wish no misery ever came near anyone yet it is that alone that gives us an insight into the depths of our lives, does it not? In our moments of anguish, gates barred forever seem to open and let in many a flood of light.
Swami Vivekananda
The Hindus progressed in the subjective sciences.
Swami Vivekananda
Our best work is done, our greatest influence is exerted, when we are without thought of self.
Swami Vivekananda
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
In a day, when you don't come across any problems - you can be sure that you are travelling in a wrong path
Swami Vivekananda
Are great things ever done smoothly? Time, patience, and indomitable will must show.
Swami Vivekananda
The ego of man and woman is the soul. If the soul is independent, how then can it be isolated from the infinite whole?
Swami Vivekananda
There is no end to the power a man can obtain.
Swami Vivekananda
