It is not life and wealth and power that enslave men, but the cleaving to life and wealth and power.

There is no fire like passion, there is no shark like hatred, there is no snare like folly, there is no torrent like greed.

Come and see...place no head above your own

Everything is changeable, everything appears and disappears; there is no blissful peace until one passes beyond the agony of life and death.

Solitude is happiness for one who is content, who has heard the Dhamma and clearly sees. Non-affliction is happiness in the world - harmlessness towards all living beings.

If a man's thoughts are muddy, If he is reckless and full of deceit, How can he wear the yellow robe? Whoever is master of his own nature, Bright, clear and true, He may indeed wear the yellow robe.

People with opinions just go around bothering each other.
