The brain and muscles must develop simultaneously. Iron nerves with an intelligent brain โ and the whole world is at your feet.
Swami VivekanandaEach work has to pass through these stagesโridicule, opposition, and then acceptance. Those who think ahead of their time are sure to be misunderstood.
Swami VivekanandaOurs is the only religion that does not depend on a person or persons; it is based upon principles. At the same time there is room for millions of persons. There is ample ground for introducing persons, but each one of them must be an illustration of the principles. We must not forget that. These principles of our religion are all safe, and it should be the life-work of everyone of us to keep then safe, and to keep them free from the accumulating dirt and dust of ages.
Swami Vivekananda
