During the darkest days of my life, it was Swami Vivekanand's writings that inspired me, gave me hope, and that propelled me to where I am today. Last few years I had been lamenting that I am missing inspiration in my life. I was living but like dead wood. No words were able to move me. But it seems that situation is likely to change. Last four months I have been striving to better myself. I have set out a program to instill in me good habits that will continuously improve myself.
Today after prolonged period of time did I feel a drop of inspiration when I read Swami Vivekanad's quotes. Here are some of Swami Vivekanand's quotes that I found inspirational today:
"Utter no words of condemnation. Close your lips, and let your hearts open."
"He who struggles is better than he who never attempts."
"Character has to be established through a thousand stumbles."
"Choose the highest ideal and live your life upto that."
"No man should be judged by his defects."
"He alone, who is always awake to the idea of freedom, becomes free."
"There is nothing holier in the world than to keep good company."
"Every great achievement is done slowly."
"Character is repeated habits, and repeated habits alone can reform character."
"It is character that cleaves its way through adamantine walls of difficulties."
"Unto him comes everything who does not care for anything."
"We want infinite energy, infinite zeal, infinite courage, and infinite patience, then only will great things be achieved."
"The cause of evil is our desire to be superior to others and our selfishness."
"No religion on earth preaches the dignity of humanity in such a lofty strain as Hinduism."
"Everything that strengthens the will by revealing the real nature is moral."
