Ramana Maharshi

"Your own Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world."

"No one succeeds without effort... Those who succeed owe their success to perseverance."

"Aim high, aim at the highest, and all lower aims are thereby achieved. It is looking below on the stormy sea of differences that makes you sink. Look up, beyond these and see the One Glorious Real, and you are saved."

"Happiness is your nature. It is not wrong to desire it. What is wrong is seeking it outside when it is inside."
