Some quotes from Speaking Tree by Gautam Buddha.
- An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind
- The man who foolishly does me wrong, I will return to him the protection of my most ungrudging love; and the more evil comes from him, the more good shall go from me
- Attachment is the source of all suffering
- You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection
- A man should first direct himself in the way he should go. Only then should he instruct others
- The tongue like a sharp knife... Kills without drawing blood
- There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it
- Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule
- Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it
- When you realize how perfect everything is you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky
- Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship
