May all beings everywhere plagued with sufferings of body and mind quickly be freed from their illnesses. May those frightened cease to be afraid, and may those bound be free. May the powerless find power, and may people think of befriending each other. May those who find themselves in trackless, fearful wilderness- the children, the aged, the unprotected- be guarded by beneficent celestials, and may they swiftly attain Buddhahood.

Wherever you live is your temple, if you treat it like one.

Joy comes not through possession or ownership but through a wise and loving heart.

Mutual respect and mutual listening are the foundations of harmony within the family.

For the good of the many, for the happiness of the many, out of compassion for the world.

The right time to show your good character is when you are pestered by someone weaker than you.

A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another. If these minds love one another the home will be as beautiful as a flower garden. But if these minds get out of harmony with one another it is like a storm that plays havoc with the garden.
