Live in joy and love even among those who hate; live in joy and peace even among the troubled.

Men give up one thing to take up another, but in spite of numerous changes they do not find peace. They are no better than monkeys who let go one bough to take hold of another, only to let it go again.

The less you have, the less you have to worry about.

To share happiness, and to have done something good before leaving this life is sweet.

Never in the world does hatred cease by hatred; hatred ceases by love.

Whatever a monk keeps pursuing with his thinking and pondering, that becomes the inclination of his awareness.

Before you've seen it, and when you first see it, it is the greatest thing; afterwards, it is ordinary.
