The Ill-directed mind can do to you even worse

Overcoming yourself is better than overcoming a million enemies in battle.

Whoever doesn't flare up at someone who's angry wins a battle hard to win.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If people speak or act with evil thoughts, pain follows them. If people speak or act with pure thoughts, happiness follows them, like a shadow that never leaves them.

Sound health is the greatest of gifts; contentedness, the greatest of riches; trust, the greatest of qualities.

The right time to show your good character is when you are pestered by someone weaker than you.

Seeker, empty the boat, lighten the load, be free of craving and judgment and hatred, and feel the joy of the way.
