Careful amidst the careless, amongst the sleeping wide-awake, the intelligent man leaves them all behind, like a race-horse does a mere hack.

Dignity and quiet joy in all that we do are the expression of perfect concentration and perfect wisdom.

If I had even a slight awareness, and practiced the Great Way, what I would fear would be deviating from it.

Concentrate the mind on the present moment.

Let a man avoid evil deeds as a man who loves life avoids poison.

Believe there is good in the world.

Have compassion for all beings, rich and poor alike; each has their suffering. Some suffer too much, others too little.
