Love and kindness are never wasted.

They always make a difference.

They bless the one who receives them, and they bless you, the giver.

Without music, life would be a mistake.

Always we should appreciate what we are able to do, and not feel bad about what we haven’t done.

Believe in your heart that you're meant to live a life full of passion, purpose, magic and miracles.

I don't think of all the misery but of the beauty that still remains.

Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.

You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

Love is the great miracle cure. Loving ourselves works miracles in our lives.

He who postpones the hour of living is like the rustic who waits for the river to run out before he crosses.

One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.

One's philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes... and the choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.

There came a time when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

Is life worth living?

It all depends on the liver.

What we learn only through the ears makes less impression upon our minds than what is presented to the trustworthy eye.

You have to grow from the inside out.

None can teach you,
none can make you spiritual.

There is no other teacher but your own soul.

You're not to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality.

Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or says it.

I am not imposed upon by fine words;

I can see what actions mean.

All the violence, fear, and suffering That exists in the world Comes from grasping at self.

Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind.

Silence is a source of great strength.
