Buddha
● All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.
● All things appear and disappear because of the concurrence of causes and conditions. Nothing ever exists entirely alone; everything is in relation to everything else.

● Ambition is like love, impatient both of delays and rivals.
● An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea.
● An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

● Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.
● Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.
● Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
● Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
● Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.
● Have compassion for all beings, rich and poor alike; each has their suffering. Some suffer too much, others too little.
● In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then beleive them to be true.
● Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful.
