Swami Vivekananda
My boat is nearing the calm harbour from which it is never more to be driven out. Glory, glory unto Mother! (Referring to the Divine Mother of the Universe.) I have no wish, no ambition now.

Swami Vivekananda
That which is selfish is immoral, and that which is unselfish is moral.
Swami Vivekananda
Many of us do not believe in any form of idolatry but they have no right to object when others do it.
Swami Vivekananda
Only those who want nothing are masters of Nature.
Swami Vivekananda
Let us give out of our own bounty, just as God gives to us.
Swami Vivekananda
Every work has got to pass through hundreds of difficulties before succeeding. Those that persevere will see the light, sooner or later.
Swami Vivekananda
Until we realise ourselves as the Absolute, we cannot attain to deliverance.
Swami Vivekananda
Our best work is done, our greatest influence is exerted, when we are without thought of self.
Swami Vivekananda
