Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.

All created things are impermanent. Strive diligently.

On a long journey of human life, faith is the best of companions; it is the best refreshment on the journey; and it is the greatest property.

All phenomena link together in a mutually conditioning network.

Reverence, humility, contentment, gratitude and hearing the good Dhamma, this is the best good luck.

Don't indulge in careless behaviour. Don't be the friend of sensual pleasures. He who meditates attentively attains abundant joy.

Never 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.
