As you walk and eat and travel, be where you are. Otherwise you will miss most of your life.
Gautama BuddhaAs the fletcher whittles and makes straight his arrows, so the master directs his straying thoughts.
Gautama BuddhaAnd for a disciple thus freed, in whose heart dwells peace, there is nothing to be added to what has been done, and naught more remains for him to do. Just as a rock of one solid mass remains unshaken by the wind, even so, neither forms, nor sounds, nor odors, nor tastes, nor contacts of any kind, neither the desired, nor the undesired, can cause such an one to waver. Steadfast is his mind, gained is deliverance.
Gautama BuddhaDo not vainly lament, but do wonder at the rule of transiency and learn from it the emptiness of human life. Do not cherish to unworthy desire that the changeable might become unchanging.
Gautama Buddha
