Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have.

Like the mother of the world, touch each being as your beloved child.

A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker.

Do not be thoughtless, always be mindful, watch your thoughts! Draw yourself out of the path of evil, like an elephant sunk in mud.

One is not low because of birth nor does birth make one holy. Deeds alone make one low, deeds alone make one holy.

And he who has considered all the contrasts on this earth, and is no more disturbed by anything whatever in the world, the Peaceful One, freed from rage, from sorrow, and from longing, he has passed beyond birth and decay.

War ends only when people love each other.
