Nhat Hanh
Though we all have the fear and the seeds of anger within us, we must learn not to water those seeds and instead nourish our positive qualities - those of compassion, understanding, and loving kindness.

Nhat Hanh
When you love someone, you want to share everything with him or her. So it is your duty to say, I suffer and I want you to know - and he will, she will, appreciate it.
Nhat Hanh

Nhat Hanh
The greatest of all miracles is to be alive.
Nhat Hanh

Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvelously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sky. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones.
Nhat Hanh
The only way to ease our fear and be truly happy is to acknowledge our fear and look deeply at its source. Instead of trying to escape from our fear, we can invite it up to our awareness and look at it clearly and deeply.
Nhat Hanh
You would not cry if you knew that by looking deeply into the rain you would still see the cloud.
