Quotations

  • “For hatred does not cease by hatred at any time: hatred ceases by love, this is an old rule.”

  • “All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts.”

  • “As a tree, even though it has been cut down, is firm so long as its root is safe, and grows again, thus, unless the feeders of thirst are destroyed, the pain of life will return again and again.”

  • “For self is the lord of self, self is the refuge of self; therefore curb thyself as the merchant curbs a good horse.”
