You have the choice to create the life your heart is yearning to live.

One's everyday life is never capable of being separated from his spiritual being.

There is nothing but nonviolence to fall back upon for retaining our freedom, even as we had to do for gaining it.

We burn the evil men do with their mortal remains. We treasure the memory of the good they do, and distance magnifies it.

My soul refuses to be satisfied so long as it is a helpless witness of a single wrong or a single misery.

All true art must help the soul to realize its inner self.

Nirvana is the utter extinction of all that is base in us, all that is vicious in us. Nirvana is not like the black, dead peace of the grave, but the living peace, the living happiness of a soul which is conscious of itself and conscious of having found its own abode in the heart of the Eternal.
