The Way is not in the sky; the Way is in the heart. - Gautama Buddha

"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."

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

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

"To force oneself to believe and to accept a thing without understanding is political, and not spiritual or intellectual."

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