Quotations
Gautama Buddha
From craving is born grief, from craving is born fear. For one freed from craving there’s no grief – so how fear?

Be determined. The Tempter masters the lazy and irresolute man who dwells on the attractive side of things, ungoverned in his senses, and unrestrained in his food, like the wind overcomes a rotten tree.
There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
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.
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.
