According to Swami Vivekananda - the cyclonic monk . He lived in the 19th century and he spread his message for humanity’s betterment.

“Stand up. Be bold. Be strong.
Any expansion is life, any contraction is death.
The history of mankind is the history of a few men who had faith in themselves.
Strength and manliness are virtue. Weakness and cowardice are sin.
Man must love others because those others are himself.
Education is not the amount of information that is put into your brain and runs riot there.
We want that education by which character is formed.
Man has infinite power in himself.
We must be pure and do good to others.
Strength alone is the medicine for all world’s disease.
We are what our thoughts have made us.
Every duty is holy and devotion to our duties is the highest form of worship to God.
Virtue is that which tends to our improvement and vice to our degeneration.
Truth alone gives strength.Learn to feel yourself in others body and feel that every soul is part of the One.
We must always take the position of the giver.
Try to be pure and selfish.
Each soul is potentially divine.
It is our privilege to be allowed to be charitable, for only then can we grow.
When all the desires of the heart will be vanquished then the very man will become God.
The power of love is infinitely greater than the power of hatred.
Faith in ourselves first then faith in God is the secret of greatness.
He who struggles is better than the one who never attempts.
Anything that makes us weak physically, intellectually, or spiritually, reject as poison.
Think of God all the time and that will purify you.
The eternal law is self-sacrifice, not self-assertion.
Work on as on each one of you depend the whole work.
The remedy for weakness is not to think about your weakness but thinking of strength.
Take up one idea, make that idea your life, dream of it, think of it and live on that idea.”
