To understand via the heart is not to understand.

No wind favors he who has no destined port.

There is nothing so extreme that is not allowed by the custom of some nation or other.

Is it not enough to make me come back to life out of spite, to have someone who spat in my face while I existed come and rub my feet when I am beginning to exist no longer?

Even in the midst of compassion we feel within I know not what tart sweet titillation of malicious pleasure in seeing others suffer; children have the same feeling.

Meditation is a rich and powerful method of study for anyone who knows how to examine his mind.
