Do not go by revelation;
Do not go by tradition;
Do not go by hearsay;
Do not go on the authority of sacred texts;
Do not go on the grounds of pure logic;
Do not go by a view that seems rational;
Do not go by reflecting on mere appearances.
(Kalama Sutta)

Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.

Buddha

No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

Buddha (Dhammapada)

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
