We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
Gautama BuddhaGive the people - confidence. Give the people - delight. Give the people - hope. Give the people - the best.
Gautama BuddhaThose who walk in the Way should avoid sensualism as those who carry hay would avoid coming near the fire.
Gautama BuddhaPain in life is inevitable but suffering is not. Pain is what the world does to you, suffering is what you do to yourself [by the way you think about the 'pain' you receive]. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. [You can always be grateful that the pain is not worse in quality, quantity, frequency, duration, etc]
Gautama Buddha
