‎You only lose that which you cling to.

The mind precedes all things, the mind dominates all things, the mind creates all things.

A good friend who points out mistakes is to be respected, as if he reveals a secret of hidden treasure.

Though through all his life a fool associates with a wise man, he yet understands not the Dharma, as the spoon, the flavor of soup.

If we destroy something around us we destroy ourselves. If we cheat another, we cheat ourselves.

Thoughtfulness is the way to deathlessness, thoughtlessness the way to death. The thoughtful do not die: the thoughtless are as if dead already.

Through effort you will cross any raging flood, through energy you will pass any sorrow.
