Swami Vivekananda Quotes, Sleep Quotes, Winter Quotes

Men sit in the snow of the Himalayas, and do not care to wear any garment. What is heat? What is cold? Let things come and go, what is that to me, I am not the body.

You nourish your minds by reading books. There is no good in doing that unless you hold it also as a sacrifice to the whole world.
