Some
quotes from Speaking Tree by Gautam Buddha.
· Your work is to
discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it
· Meditate. Live
purely. Be quiet. Do your work with mastery. Like the moon, come out from
behind the clouds!
· The foot feels the
foot when it feels the ground
· To conquer oneself is
a greater task than conquering others
· You are the community
now. Be a lamp for yourselves. Be your own refuge. Seek for no other. All things must pass. Strive on diligently.
Don’t give up
· Do not dwell in the
past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
· 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.
· Health is the
greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best
relationship.
· The way is not in the
sky. The way is in the heart.
· Holding on to anger
is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you
are the one who gets burned.
· The tongue like a
sharp knife... Kills without drawing blood.
