Evil-doers who denounce the wise resemble a person who spits against the sky; the spittle will never reach the sky, but comes down on himself. Evil-doers again resemble a man who stirs the dust against the wind; the dust is never raised without doing him injury. Thus, the wise will never be hurt, but the curse is sure to destroy the evil-doers themselves.
Gautama BuddhaThe person who masters himself through self-control and discipline is truly undefeatable.
Gautama BuddhaAll wrong-doing arises because of mind. If mind is transformed can wrong-doing remain?
Gautama BuddhaBesides the respect of the lives of human beings, all the animals and plants should be on the list too. That is the real humanitarianism.
