In this world Hate never yet dispelled hate. Only love dispels hate. This is the law, Ancient and inexhaustible.
Gautama BuddhaOur theories of the eternal are as valuable as are those which a chick which has not broken its way through its shell might form of the outside world.
Gautama BuddhaFrom craving arises sorrow, from craving arises fear, but he who is freed from craving has no sorrow and certainly no fear.
Gautama BuddhaNow this, monks, is the noble truth of suffering: birth is suffering, aging is suffering, illness is suffering, death is suffering; union with what is displeasing is suffering; seperation from what is pleasing is suffering... in brief, the five aggregates subject to clinging are suffering.
Gautama Buddha
