Develop a mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect poise of mind: follow calmness, the absence of pride.

We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
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.
A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
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.
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.
