Personality Development:- What we want is to see the man who is harmoniously developed… great in heart, great in mind, [great in deed] ... We want the man who will not even stop there, [but] who wants to work out [the feeling and meaning by actual deeds]. Such a combination of head, heart and hand is what we want. " "The ideal of all education, all training, should be man making. The end and aim of all training is to make the man grow. The man who influences, who throws his magic, as it were, upon his fellow beings, is a dynamo of power, and when that man is ready, he can do anything and everything he likes; that personality put upon anything will make it work. " "Through out the history of mankind, if any motive power has been 'more potent than another in the lives of all great men and women, it is that of faith in themselves. If the fisherman thinks that he is the Atman, he will be a better fisherman; if a student thinks he is the Atman, he will be a better Student; if a lawyer thinks that he is the Atman, he will be a better lawyer, and so on." Whatever you think, that you will be. If you think yourselves weak, weak you will be; if you think yourselves strong, strong you will be. The remedy for weakness is not brooding over weakness, but thinking of strength. Teach men of the strength that is already within them. Men, men, these are wanted: everything else will be ready, but strong, vigorous, believing young men, sincere to the backbone, are wanted. A hundred such and the world becomes revolutionized.
