What world wants is character. The world is in need of those whose life is one of burning love, selfless. That love will make every word tell like thunderbolt.

Think not that you are poor, money is not power, but goodness, holiness.

<ul><li>Give up the awful disease that is creeping into our national blood, that idea of ridiculing everything, that loss of seriousness. Give that up.</li><li>Be strong and have this Shraddha, and everything else is bound to follow.</li></ul>

Give respect to earn respect.

Arise, awake, and stop not till the desired end is reached. Be not afraid, for great power, throughout the history of humanity, has been with the people. From out of their ranks have come all the greatest geniuses of the world.

We have wept long enough. No more weeping, but stand on your feet and be men. It is a man-making religion that we want. It is man-making theories that we want. It is man-making education all around that we want.

We have wept long enough.

When there is conflict between the heart and the brain, let the heart be followed.

Be brave, be brave! Man dies but once. My disciples must not be cowards.

Try to expand. Remember, the only sign of life is motion and growth.

<ul><li>Bold words and bolder deeds are what we want.</li><li>Awake, awake, great ones! The world is burning with misery.</li><li>Can you sleep? Let us call and call till the sleeping gods awake, till the god within answers the call. What more is in life?</li></ul>

BE BOLD, Awake yourself to the reality!

Get up, and put your shoulders to the wheel - how long is this life for? As you have come into this world, leave some mark behind.Otherwise, where is the difference between you and the trees and the stones? They, too, come into existence, decay and die.

As you have come into this world, leave some mark behind. 

This world is not for cowards. Do not try to fly. Look not for success or failure. Join yourself to the perfectly unselfish will and work on. Know that the mind which is born to succeed joins itself to a determined will and perseveres.

Join yourself to the perfectly unselfish will and work on.

<ul><li>The faculty of organization is entirely absent in our nature, but this has to be infused.</li><li>The great secret is - absence of jealousy.</li><li>Be always ready to concede to the opinions of your brethren, and try always to conciliate. That is the whole secret.</li></ul>

Give structure to scale yourself.

This I lay down as the first essential in all I teach: anything that brings spiritual, mental or physical weakness, touch it not with the toes of your feet.Religion is the manifestation of the natural strength that is in man.

THE SUMMARY. Be brave, be steady, be patient. Awake, arise and stop not till the goal is reached, Vivekananda would have been a Dev+blogger if he lived today :) 

VIVEKANANDA
