There are these two kinds of gifts: a gift of material things & a gift of the Dhamma. Of the two, this is supreme: a gift of the Dhamma.
Gautama Buddha
There is no fire like passion, there is no shark like hatred, there is no snare like folly, there is no torrent like greed.
Gautama Buddha
All that we are is the result of what we have thought it is founded on our thoughts it is made up of our thoughts. A man's life is the direct result of his thoughts... We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world.
Gautama Buddha
The Buddhas do but tell the way it is for you to swelter at the task.
Gautama Buddha
As you travel though life, offer good wishes to each being you meet.

Treat others with respect. How you treat others will be how they treat you.
Gautama Buddha
And he who lives a hundred years, idle and weak, a life of one day is better if a man has attained firm strength.
Gautama Buddha
The mind that perceives the limitation is the limitation.
Gautama Buddha
But when one masters this wretched desire, which is so hard to overcome, then one's sorrows just drop off, like a drop of water off a lotus.
Gautama Buddha
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west people create disticntions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha
Once you know the nature of anger and joy is empty and you let them go, you free yourself from karma.
Gautama Buddha
Wherever we go, wherever we remain, the results of our actions follow us.
Gautama Buddha
There is no fire like passion. There are no chains like hate. Illusion is a net, Desire is a rushing river.
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.
Gautama Buddha
Cut down the forest, not just a tree. Out of the forest of desire springs danger. By cutting down both the forest of desire and the brushwood of longing, be rid of the forest, bhikkhus.
Gautama Buddha
The ocean, king of mountains and the mighty continents Are not heavy burdens to bear when compared To the burden of not repaying the world's kindness.
Gautama Buddha
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
If we destroy something around us we destroy ourselves. If we cheat another, we cheat ourselves.
Gautama Buddha
Let go the past, let go the future, and let go the present (front, back, middle). Crossing to the farther shore of existence, with mind released everywhere, do not further undergo birth and decay.
Gautama Buddha
