The foolish man conceives the idea of ‘self.’ The wise man sees there is no ground on which to build the idea of ‘self;’ thus, he has a right conception of the world and well concludes that all compounds amassed by sorrow will be dissolved again, but the truth will remain. Buddha Read Quote
The virtues, like the Muses, are always seen in groups. A good principle was never found solitary in any breast. Buddha Read Quote
When one has the feeling of dislike for evil, when one feels tranquil, one finds pleasure in listening to good teachings; when one has these feelings and appreciates them, one is free of fear. Buddha Read Quote
Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life. Buddha Read Quote
Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue. Buddha Read Quote
To be idle is a short road to death and to be diligent is a way of life; foolish people are idle, wise people are diligent. Buddha Read Quote
