"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."
"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."
"Words do not express thoughts very well; every thing immediately becomes a little different, a little distorted, a little foolish. And yet it also pleases me and seems right that what is of value and wisdom of one man seems nonsense to another."
"To become vegetarian is to step into the stream which leads to nirvana."
"You will not be punished for your anger; you will be punished by your anger."
