No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If you speak or act with an evil thought, pain follows. If you speak or act with a pure thought, happiness follows, like a shadow that never leaves.
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful.
Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
