“A man is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes.”

 

“Seven social sins: politics without principles, wealth without work, pleasure without conscience, knowledge without character, commerce without morality, science without humanity, and worship without sacrifice.”

 

“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.” 

 

“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.”

 

“You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.”

 

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.” 

 

“Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.” 

 

“Truth alone will endure, all the rest will be swept away before the tide of time.”

 

“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.” 

 

“Love is the strongest force the world possesses and yet it is the humblest imaginable.”

 

“What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another.” 

 

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”

 

“The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust. The world crushes the dust under its feet, but the seeker after truth should so humble himself that even the dust could crush him. Only then, and not till then, will he have a glimpse of truth.”
