Gautama Buddha

"In the endthese things matter most:How well did you love?How fully did you live?How deeply did you let go?"

"Those who have failed to work toward the truth have missed the purpose of living."

"You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection."

"Three things can not hide for long: the Moon, the Sun and the Truth."

"You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection."

"All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts and made up of our thoughts. If a man speak or act with an evil thought, suffering follows him as the wheel follows the hoof of the beast that draws the wagon.... If a man speak or act with a good thought, happiness follows him like a shadow that never leaves him."

"May all that have life be delivered from suffering"

"When the Aggregates arise, decay and die, O bhikkhu, every moment you are born, decay, and die."

"What is evil? Killing is evil, lying is evil, slandering is evil, abuse is evil, gossip is evil, envy is evil, hatred is evil, to cling to false doctrine is evil; all these things are evil. And what is the root of evil? Desire is the root of evil, illusion is the root of evil."

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

"There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills."

"Happiness comes when your work and words are of benefit to others."

"a dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. a man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker."

"Few among men are they who cross to the further shore. The others merely run up and down the bank on this side."

"You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection"

"When the Aggregates arise, decay and die, O bhikkhu, every moment you are born, decay, and die."

"With our thoughts we make the world."

"The Way is not in the sky; the Way is in the heart."

"Speak the truth do not become angered and give when asked, even be it a little. By these three conditions one goes to the presence of the gods."

"You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection"
