Gautama Buddha
Image
Believe not because some old manuscripts are produced, believe not because it is your national belief, believe not because you have been made to believe from you childhood, but reason truth out, and after you have analyzed it, then if you find it will do good to one and all, believe it, live up to it and help others live up to it.

There is nothing so disobedient as an undisciplined mind, and there is nothing so obedient as a disciplined mind.
