Hatreds never cease by hatreds in this world. By love alone they cease. This is an ancient Law.
Serenity comes when you trade expectations for acceptance.
The ignorant man is an ox. He grows in size, not in wisdom.
Friendship is the only cure for hatred, the only guarantee of peace.
And he who has considered all the contrasts on this earth, and is no more disturbed by anything whatever in the world, the Peaceful One, freed from rage, from sorrow, and from longing, he has passed beyond birth and decay.
With our thoughts we make the world.
