Quotes To Inspire

IMHO we all could use some quotes that uplift us, getting us going, inspire. Here are but a few:

"If you keep in touch with God with faith and love, then God is within yourself, He'll give you intelligence how you can go back to home, back to Godhead. There are many different processes or yoga system to be in touch with God, but for the people in this age, this is the easiest method, to be in touch with God simply by chanting His holy name."

(Srila Prabhupada Lecture, Hamburg, September 10, 1969)

[For those who do not know, Lord Ramachandra or Rama - is Krishna - simply in a different incarnation.  God can do anything, thus He can appear in varoius forms. With that said, what follows is an inspiring quote.]

"When Lord Rāmacandra, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, was the King of this world, all bodily and mental suffering, disease, old age, bereavement, lamentation, distress, fear and fatigue were completely absent. There was even no death for those who did not want it." 

Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 9.10.53

"Simply hearing submissively will free one's heart from all the faults of ignorance, and thus one will achieve deep love for Kṛṣṇa. This is the path of peace."

Reference: cc/adi/1/97

"Even though one may be ignorant, one can reach the far shore of the ocean of transcendental love by Lord Kṛṣṇa’s mercy.”

"Dedicate your life for Krishna. That is the perfection. Even if there are most faults, dedicate life is noble life. Maybe, due to our past habits, we may commit some faulty action, but that decicated life is sublilme." SP, Mayapur, March 4, 1974

"So here it is said anyone, somehow or other if he has become attracted to Kṛṣṇa by His transcendental qualities and pastime, then what happens?

na te yamaṁ pāśa-bhṛtaś ca tad-bhaṭān
