Quotes of Swami Vivekananda in this video;

1. The best thermometer to the progress of a nation is its treatment to its women.

2. The idea of perfect womanhood is perfect independence.

3. Educate your women first and leave them to themselves; then they will tell you what reforms are necessary for them.

4. There is no chance for the welfare of the world unless the condition of women is improved. It is not possible for a bird to fly on only one wing.

5. Is there any sex-distinction in the Atman (Self)? Out with the differentiation between man and woman – all is Atman!

6. The great Aryans, Buddha among the rest, have always put woman in an equal position with man. For them sex in religion did not exist. In the Vedas and Upanishads, women taught the highest truths and received the same veneration as men.

7. There is no hope for that family or country where there is no estimation of women, where they live in sadness. For this reason, they have to be raised first.

8. Women will work out their destinies – much better, too, than men can ever do for them. All the mischief to women has come because men undertook to shape the destiny of women.

9. The natural ambition of woman is through marriage to climb up, leaning upon a man; but those days are gone. You shall be great without the help of any man, just as you are.

10. With five hundred men, the conquest of India might take fifty years; with as many women, not more than a few weeks.
