"The ideal of womanhood in India is..." - Quote by Swami Vivekananda

“When a man is perfect, he sees perfection in others. When he sees imperfection, it is his own mind projecting itself.”

“Do one thing at a Time, and while doing it put your whole Soul into it to the exclusion of all else.”

“Every artist paints his Madonna according to his own pre-conceived ideas.”

“A sick child is always the mother's property; her own feelings generally make it so.”

“I will fight for my children on any level so they can reach their potential as human beings and in their public duties.”

“My mother is so full of joy and life. I am her child. And that is better than being the child of anyone else in the world.”

“My mother was very proud of her Indian heritage and taught us, me and my sister Maya, to share in the pride about our culture. We used to go back to India every couple of years.”

“All of a sudden inscriptions appeared on walls. Signs appeared. And that 'no' exploded all over India, in an act of pride that surprised even me. Then even the political parties, all of them, even the deputies in Parliament, said no: it's better to die of hunger than be taken for a nation of beggars.”

“Hazrat Mahal, Begum of Oudh, during the national liberation uprising of 1857-59 in India headed the rebels.”
