O men! you can take life easily but, remember, none of you can give life! So, have mercy, have compassion! And, never forget, that compassion makes the world noble and beautiful.

By your own folly you will be brought as low as your worst enemy wishes.

You must love yourself before you love another. By accepting yourself and fully being what you are, your simple presence can make others happy You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love & affection.

Nothing is forever except change.

Follow not after the vain, understand the ills of sense pleasures. One who is vigilant and meditative, obtains deep joy.
