We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
Quotations
Swami Vivekananda
To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. “I will drink the ocean”, says the persevering soul; “at my will mountains will crumble up”.
Was there ever a more horrible blasphemy than the statement that all the knowledge of God is confined to this or that book?
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. So we have to know how to act.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
