Swami Vivekananda
Well has it been said that man is the only animal that naturally looks upwards every other animal naturally looks down.
Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
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
All manifest life seems to require a period of sleep, of calm, in which to gain added strength, renewed vigour, for the next manifestation, or awakening to activity. Thus is the march of all progress, of all manifest life - in waves, successive waves, [of] activity and repose. Waves succeed each other in an endless chain of progression.
Swami Vivekananda
According to the law of nature, wherever there is an awakening of a new and stronger life, there it tries to conquer and take the place of the old and the decaying. Nature favours the dying out of the unfit and the survival of the fittest. The final result of such conflict between the priestly and the other classes has been mentioned already.
Swami Vivekananda
The great Vaishnava religion of India has also sprung from a Tamil Pariah - Shathakopa - who was a dealer in winnowing-fans but was a Yogin all the while.
Swami Vivekananda
The Vedas give information on various subjects. They have come together and form one book. And in later times, when other subjects were separated from religion - when astronomy and astrology were taken out of religion - these subjects, being connected with the Vedas and being ancient, were considered very holy.
Swami Vivekananda
We, we, and none else, are responsible for what we suffer. We are the effects, and we are the causes.
Swami Vivekananda
The perfect man sees nothing but God.
Swami Vivekananda
The whole life is a succession of dreams. My ambition is to be a conscious dreamer, that is all.
Swami Vivekananda
This perfection must come through the practice of holiness and love.
Swami Vivekananda
Whenever two particles come together, they are held by a certain attraction and there will come a time when those particles will separate. This is the eternal law. So, wherever there is a body - either grosser or finer, either in heaven or on earth - death will overcome it.
Swami Vivekananda
