Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
(Quoted in The Teachings of the Compassionate Buddha, 1955)

Select Buddha Quotations |
Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace. No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path. 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.
