Investigating in this way, we come to realize that there is no me or mine in any one part, just as a sound does not belong to any one part of the lute.
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
We will be thankful and grateful. Not even the last thing that is done for us shall be forgotten.
Gautama Buddha

The less you have, the less you have to worry about.
Gautama Buddha
