The world, indeed, is like a dream and the treasures of the world are an alluring mirage! Like the apparent distances in a picture, things have no reality in themselves, but they are like heat haze.

Love lasts when the relationship comes first

Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.

Go forth in every direction- for the happiness, the harmony, the welfare of the many. Offer your heart, the seeds of understanding, like a lamp overturned and re-lit, illuminating the darkness.

Do not disregard the accumulation of goodness, saying, 'This will come to nothing.' By the gradual falling of raindrops, a jar is filled.

Do not carry with you your mistakes. Do not carry your cares. Travel on alone. Like an elephant in the forest.

I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
