"Even forgiveness, if weak and passive, is..." - Quote by Swami Vivekananda

“The effect is delusion, and therefore the cause must be delusion.”

“The greatest sin is to think yourself weak”

“Until we realise ourselves as the Absolute, we cannot attain to deliverance.”

“Flesh and blood,You, brother mine, that entertain'd ambition,Expell'd remorse and nature, who, with Sebastian-Whose inward pinches therefore are most strong-Would here have kill'd your king, I do forgive thee,Unnatural though thou art.”

“Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.”

“You never hear of a mother cursing the child; she is forgiving, always forgiving.”

“We say justly that the weak person is flat, for, like all flat substances, he does not stand in the direction of his strength, that is, on his edge, but affords a convenient surface to put upon. He slides all the way through life.... But the brave man is a perfect sphere, which cannot fall on its flat side and is equally strong every way.”

“The softest in the world surpasses the hardest in the world.”

“The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow.”
