Gautama Buddha

It is impossible for a man who is bogged to extricate another who is bogged.

Buddha

It is impossible to underestimate the significance of your today’s choices.

Buddha

It is in this way that I went forth to teach.

Buddha

It is more important to prevent animal suffering, rather than sit to contemplate the evils of the universe praying in the company of priests.

Buddha

Joy comes not through possession or ownership but through a wise and loving heart.

Buddha

Just as a chariot is verbalized, in dependence on collections of parts, so conventionally a sentient being, is set up depending on the mental and physical aggregates.

Buddha

Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.

Buddha

Know from the rivers in clefts and in crevices: those in small channels flow noisily, the great flow silent. Whatever’s not full makes noise. Whatever is full is quiet.

Buddha

Let go of anger. Let go of pride. When you are bound by nothing, you go beyond sorrow.

Buddha

Let none find fault with others; let none see the omissions and commissions of others. But let one see one’s own acts, done and undone.

Buddha
