One moment can change a day, one day can change a life, and one life can change the world.

As a flower that is lovely and beautiful, but is scentless, even so fruitless is the well-spoken word of one who does not practice it.

Radiate boundless love towards the entire world — above, below, and across — unhindered, without ill will, without enmity.

Both formerly and now, it is only suffering that I describe, and the cessation of suffering.

Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.

In the end, only three things matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.

A man is not called wise because he talks and talks again; but if he is peaceful, loving and fearless then he is in truth called wise.

Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.

Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind.

To understand everything is to forgive everything.

Live in joy, in love, even among those who hate. Live in joy, in health, even among the afflicted. Live in joy, in peace, even among the troubled. Look within, be still.

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.

Those who cling to perceptions and views wander the world offending people.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.

Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.

As rain breaks through an ill-thatched house, passion will break through an unreflecting mind.

Nothing can harm you as much as your own unguarded thoughts.

Your purpose in life is to find your purpose and give your whole heart and soul to it.

There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting.
