This faith in themselves was in the hearts of our ancestors, this faith in themselves was the motive power that pushed them forward and forward in the march of civilisation, and if there has been degeneration, if there has been defect, mark my words, you will find that degeneration to have started on the day our people lost faith in themselves.

Until higher institutions have been evolved, any attempt to break the old ones will be disastrous.
Swami Vivekananda
The sign of vigour, the sign of life, the sign of hope, the sign of health, the sign of everything that is good, is strength. As long as the body lives, there must be strength in the body, strength in the mind, [and strength] in the hand.
Swami Vivekananda
All these ideas such as astrology, although there may be a grain of truth in them, should be avoided.

Swami Vivekananda
Perfection is always infinite.
Swami Vivekananda
