"Ahimsa (non-killing), truthfulness, purity, mercy, and godliness..." - Quote by Swami Vivekananda

“Sincerity of conviction and purity of motive will surely gain the day; and even a small minority, armed with these, is surely destined to prevail against all odds.”

“Never are we nearer the Light than when the darkness is deepest.”

“In everything, there are two kinds of development-analytical and synthetical. In the former the Hindus excel other nations. In the latter they are nil.”

“The virtues are lost in self-interest as rivers are lost in the sea.”

“In childhood be modest, in youth temperate, in adulthood just, and in old age prudent.”

“If vanity does not entirely overthrow the virtues, at least it makes them all totter.”

“Don't do anything that goes against your conscience, even if your country says so.”

“Good and evil are essential differences of the act of the will. For good and evil pertain essentially to the will; just as truth and falsehood pertain to the reason, the act of which is distinguished essentially by the difference of truth and falsehood (according as we say that an opinion is true or false.) Consequently, good and evil volition are acts differing in species.”

“No matter how you seem to fatten on a crime, there can never be good for the bee which is bad for the hive.”
