They who imagine truth in untruth and see untruth in truth will never arrive at the truth.
Gautama BuddhaThough he should conquer a thousand men in the battlefield a thousand times, yet he, indeed, who would conquer himself is the noblest victor.
Gautama BuddhaWhen one is overcome by this wretched, clinging desire in the world, one's sorrows increase like grass growing up after a lot of rain.
Gautama BuddhaFor, owners of their deeds (karma) are the beings, heirs of their deeds; their deeds are the womb from which they sprang; with their deeds they are bound up; their deeds are their refuge. Whatever deeds they do-good or evil-of such they will be the heirs. And wherever the beings spring into existence, there their deeds will ripen; and wherever their deeds ripen, there they will earn the fruits of those deeds, be it in this life, or be it in the next life, or be it in any other future life.
Gautama Buddha
