I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind.
God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds and invented cages.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
It is the Path of the Good Mind which Thou hast manifested to me, O Ahura! Whereby the welldoers, in accordance with the teaching of the Spiritual Guides, acting in harmony with Truth alone, Shall pass onward to the assigned reward of which Thou art the bestower, O Mazda! This precious reward of Thine, O Mazda, Thou givest by way of the Good Mind, Thou givest to those who perform actions through knowledge and pure thought; who attempt for the progress and development of the world; fulfil God’s desire and try for the progress of God’s Will through truth and righteousness.
