Hatred does not cease through hatred at any time. Hatred ceases through love. This is an unalterable law.
Gautama BuddhaDo not give up your authority and follow blindly the will of others. This way will lead to only delusion.
Gautama BuddhaNever have anything to do with likes and dislikes. The absence of what one likes is painful, as is the presence of what one dislikes. Therefore don't take a liking to anything. To lose what one likes is hard, but there are no bonds for those who have no likes and dislikes. From preference arises sorrow, from preference arises fear, but he who is freed from preference has no sorrow and certainly no fear.
Gautama Buddha
