Be quick to do good. If you are slow, The mind, delighting in mischief, Will catch you. Turn away from mischief. Again and again, turn away. Before sorrow befalls you. Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again, And you will be filled with joy. A fool is happy Until his mischief turns against him. And a good man may suffer Until his goodness flowers. Do not make light of your failings, Saying, 'What are they to me?' A jug fills drop by drop.

Establish your mind as necessary for knowledge and remembrance. Establish a mind free of grasping to anything.

Being deeply learned and skilled, being well trained and using well spoken words; This is good luck.

Only he who crosses the stream of life wishes to know what is known as unknowable.

Do not vainly lament, but do wonder at the rule of transiency and learn from it the emptiness of human life. Do not cherish to unworthy desire that the changeable might become unchanging.

The virtuous man delights in this world and he delights in the next

Understand that the body is merely the foam of a wave, the shadow of a shadow.
