To conquer oneself is a greater task than conquering others
Shakyamuni philosopher, teacher and religious leader on whose teachings Buddhism was founded.
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without
Your body is precious. It is our vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care
Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die
Avoid evil deeds as a man who loves life avoids poison
To abstain from lying is essentially wholesome
The tongue like a sharp knife… Kills without drawing blood
One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane
The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions
There is truth in wine and children
Reason is powerless in the expression of love
Those who make fun of you, those who try to get rid of you, they are the people whose applause you most often seek to obtain.
Tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of this world
