Image
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If people speak or act with evil thoughts, pain follows them. If people speak or act with pure thoughts, happiness follows them, like a shadow that never leaves them.
Gautama Buddha
Image
As a single drop of water fills a bucket, so do small deeds of evil as a single drop of water fills a bucket, so do small deeds of good.
Gautama Buddha

Regard this fleeting world like this: Like stars fading and vanishing at dawn, like bubbles on a fast-moving stream, like morning dewdrops evaporating on blades of grass, like a candle flickering in a strong wind... echoes, mirages, and phantoms, hallucinations, and like a dream.

Whoever counters the malicious with malice can never be free, but one who feels no maliciousness pacifies those who hate. Hate brings misery to humanity so the wise man knows no hatred.
Gautama Buddha
Image
This is how to contemplate our conditioned existence in this fleeting world: Like a tiny drop of dew, or a bubble floating in a stream Like a flash of lightning in a summer cloud, Or a flickering lamp, an illusion, a phantom, or a dream. So is all conditioned existence to be seen.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Let them not do the slightest thing that the wise would later reprove.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle. Happiness never decreases by being shared.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Pay no attention to the faults of others, things done or left undone by others. Consider only what by oneself is done or left undone.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Give thanks for what had been given to you, However little. Be pure, never falter.
Gautama Buddha

Hatreds never cease by hatreds in this world. By love alone they cease. This is an ancient Law.
