Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
When there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.
The world will be balanced when we are balanced.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
You and the world should stop thinking of changing each other. Just allow a third person to do the needful. You know who I mean: God, the only Doer.
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there is no attachment.
Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.
