We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
Develop a mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect poise of mind: follow calmness, the absence of pride.
Faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is light by day and right mindfulness is protection by night.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
