We are all very ignorant. What happens is that not all ignore the same things.

Life doesn't require that we be the best, only that we try our best.

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.

When you think everything is someone else's fault, you will suffer a lot.

When you realize that everything springs only from yourself, you will learn both peace and joy.

Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.

There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature -- the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.

Education without morals is like a ship without a compass, merely wandering nowhere.

One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure.

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

Drop the idea that attachment and love are one thing.

They are enemies.

It is attachment that destroys all love.

Just as a snake sheds its skin, we must shed our past over and over again.

A productive and happy life
is not something you find;
it is something you make.

Happiness is not about the trophy or the finish line.

It's the journey.

If you can enjoy your journey,
you can enjoy your life.

Inside of me there are two dogs.

One is mean and evil and the other is good, and they fight each other all the time.

When asked which one wins I answer,
the one I feed the most.

Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day.

Would you really dig into yesterday’s garbage to make tonight’s meal?
Do you dig into old mental garbage to create tomorrow’s experiences?
If a thought or belief does not serve you, let it go!
There is no written law that says that because you once believed something, you have to continue to believe it forever.

Respect what you do not understand, study it before denying it.

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

Give every day the chance to become the most beautiful day of your life.

Gratitude leads to devotion, resulting in compassion that flows naturally from the heart as profound healing.

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.
