Sayings / Quotes of Swami Vivekananda > Society
Society and Man
• Now we are not much more moral than the animals. We are only held down by the whips of society. If society said today, "I will not punish you if you steal", we should just make a rush for each other's property. It is the policeman that makes us moral. It is social opinion that makes us moral, and really, we are little better than animals.
