Crying with the wise is better than laughing with the fool.

The foot feels the foot when it feels the ground.

He who lives with his senses well controlled, moderate in his food and drink, he will not be overthrown, any more than the wind throws down a rocky mountain.

Everything changes, nothing remains without change.

What's done to the children is done to society.

Be quick to do good. If you are slow, The mind, delighting in mischief, Will catch you. Turn away from mischief. Again and again, turn away. Before sorrow befalls you. Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again, And you will be filled with joy. A fool is happy Until his mischief turns against him. And a good man may suffer Until his goodness flowers. Do not make light of your failings, Saying, 'What are they to me?' A jug fills drop by drop.

One act of pure love in saving life is greater than spending the whole of one's time in religious offerings to the gods . . .
