Go slowly, breathe and smile.
Nhat Hanh

Knowing that anger makes me ugly, I smile instead. I return to myself and meditate on love.
Nhat Hanh

When you love someone, the best thing you can offer is your presence. How can you love if you are not there?
Nhat Hanh

To think in terms of either pessimism or optimism oversimplifies the truth. The problem is to see reality as it is.

We have to have loving speech. And if we are honest, if we are true, terrorists will open their hearts. Then we practice compassionate listening, and we can learn so much about our own perception and their perception. Only after that can we help remove wrong perception. That is the best way, the only way, to remove terrorism.

Your anxiety is your baby. You have to take care of it. You have to go back to yourself, recognize the suffering in you, embrace the suffering, and you get relief. And if you continue with your practice of mindfulness, you understand the roots, the nature of the suffering, and you know the way to transform it.
Nhat Hanh
Image
We humans have lost the wisdom of genuinely resting and relaxing. We worry too much. We don't allow our bodies to heal, and we don't allow our minds and hearts to heal.
Nhat Hanh
Image
For things to reveal themselves to us, we need to be ready to abandon our views about them.
Nhat Hanh
Image
I do not watch television. But I'm in touch with the world. If anything really important happens, someone will tell me.
Nhat Hanh
Image
We need to move beyond the idea of 'environment' and fall back in love with Mother Earth.
Nhat Hanh
Image
The true miracle is not walking on water or walking in air, but simply walking on this earth.
Nhat Hanh

I vow to live fully in each moment.
Nhat Hanh
