There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant.

Our problems are not solved by physical force, by hatred, by warOur problems are solved by loving kindness by gentleness, by joy

I am, I am not, I will be, I will not be are vein thoughts which is a sickness and once all are eliminated no desire arises.

Never tell a lie. Anyone who can tell you the slightest of lies is also capable of any evil.

Just as a mother would protect with her life her own son, her only son, so one should cultivate an unbounded mind towards all beings, and loving-kindness towards all the world. One should cultivate an unbounded mind, above and below and across, without obstruction, without enmity, without rivalry. Standing, or going, or seated, or lying down, as long as one is free from drowsiness, one should practice this mindfulness. This, they say, is the holy state here.

Whoever has done harmful actions but later covers them up with good is like the moon which, freed from clouds, lights up the world.

Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.
