Some quotes from Speaking Tree by Gautam Buddha.
- The world, indeed, is like a dream and the treasures of the world are an alluring mirage! Like the apparent distances in a picture, things have no reality in themselves, but they are like heat haze.
- As the fletcher whittles and makes straight his arrows, so the master directs his straying thoughts.
- Through zeal, knowledge is gotten, through lack of zeal, knowledge is lost; let a man who knows the double path of gain and loss thus place himself that knowledge may grow.
- Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart, give yourself to it.
- What we think, we become.
- The foot feels the foot when it feels the ground.
- Decay is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.
- On a long journey of human life, faith is the best of companions; it is the best refreshment on the journey; and it is the greatest property.
- His success may be great, but be it ever so great the wheel of fortune may turn again and bring him down into the dust.
- If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change.
- You cannot travel the path until you have become the path itself.
