A man may conquer a million men in battle but one who conquers himself is, indeed, the greatest of conquerors.
Gautama BuddhaFollow then the shining ones, the wise, the awakened, the loving, for they know how to work and forbear.
Gautama BuddhaFind out for yourself what is truth, what is real. Discover that there are virtuous things and there are non-virtuous things. Once you have discovered for yourself give up the bad and embrace the good.
Gautama BuddhaAs a net is made up of a series of ties, so everything in this world is connected by a series of ties. If anyone thinks that the mesh of a net is an independent, isolated thing, he is mistaken. It is called a net because it is made up of a series of interconnected meshes, and each mesh has its place and responsibility in relation to other meshes.
Gautama Buddha
