No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
(Dhammapada)
Buddha
| Select Buddha Quotations |
Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace. It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell. 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.
