Hatreds never cease by hatreds in this world. By love alone they cease. This is an ancient Law.
Gautama BuddhaHatred does not cease in this world by hating, but by not hating; this is an eternal truth.
Gautama BuddhaThe fragrance of sandalwood and rosebay does not travel far. But the fragrance of virtue rises to the heavens.
Gautama BuddhaMoved by their selfish desires, people seek after fame and glory. But when they have acquired it, they are already stricken in years. If you hanker after worldly fame and practise not the Way, your labors are wrongfully applied and your energy is wasted. It is like unto burning an incense stick. However much its pleasing odor be admired, the fire that consumes is steadily burning up the stick.
Gautama Buddha
