1. The tongue like a sharp knife kills without
drawing blood.
2. An idea that is developed and put into action is
more important than an idea that exists only as
an idea.
3. Each morning we are born again. What we do
today is what matters most.
4. Believe nothing, no matter where you read it,
or who said it, no matter if I have said it,
unless it agrees with your own reason and
your own common sense.
5. Believe nothing, merely because you have
been told it. Do not believe what your teacher
tells you merely out of respect for the teacher.
But whatsoever, after due examination and
analysis, you find to be kind, conducive to the
good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings that
doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as
your guide.
6. One thought leads to heaven, one thought
leads to hell.
7. Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun,
the moon, and the truth.
8. You only lose what you cling to.
9. Be where you are; otherwise you will miss
your life.
10. Let yourself be open and life will be easier. A
spoon of salt in a glass of water makes the
water undrinkable. A spoon of salt in a lake is
almost unnoticed.
11. Do not dwell in the past, do not dwell in the
future, concentrate the mind on the present
moment.
12. To forgive others is to be good to yourself.
The conquest of oneself is better than the
conquest of all others.
13. 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.
14. I don't wish to be everything to everyone, but I
would like to be something to someone.
15. Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts
of resentment are cherished in the mind.
Anger will disappear just as soon as thoughts
of resentment are forgotten.
16. Neither fire nor wind, birth nor death can erase
our good deeds.
17. Nothing is permanent.
18. Nothing is permanent.
What we are today comes from our thoughts
of yesterday, and our present thoughts build
our life of tomorrow: Our life is the creation of
our mind.
19. We are formed and molded by our thoughts.
Those whose minds are shaped by selfless
thoughts give joy when they speak or act. Joy
follows them like a shadow that never leaves
them.
20. Fashion your life as a garland of beautiful
deeds.
