Like a beautiful flower, full of colour, but without scent, are wise words when spoken, but fruitless these words are when not carried out by the speaker.

If you can keep as silent as a broken gong, then you have attained, when you know no anger.

Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench.

If you don't see God in the next person you meet, look no further.

The world is on fire! And you are laughing? You are deep in the dark. Will you not ask for a light?
