There is no chance for the welfare of the world unless the condition of woman is improved. It is not possible for a bird to fly on only one wing. There is no hope for that family or country where there is no estimation of women, where they live in sadness. For this reason, they have to be raised first.
Swami Vivekananda

We do not depend upon any external help in meditation.
Swami Vivekananda
The banyan tree does not mean awakening, nor does the hill, nor the saint, nor the European couple. The lotus is a symbol of regeneration.
Swami Vivekananda
Art must be in touch with nature - and wherever that touch is gone, Art degenerates - yet it must be above nature.
Swami Vivekananda
