Win over the ill-natured man by goodness…Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
There is no evil that cannot be done by the liar, who has transgressed the one law of truthfulness and who is indifferent to the world beyond.
If one speaks or acts with pure mind, because of that happiness follows one, even as one’s shadow that never leaves.
Hatred never ceases through hatred in this world; through love alone they cease. This is an eternal law.
By degrees, little by little, from time to time, a wise person should remove his own impurities as a smith removes the dross from silver.
Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
A solid rock is not disturbed by the wind; even so, a wise person is not agitated by praise or blame.
