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. You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger. Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared. The mind is everything. What you think you become. Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth. Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection. No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path. We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves. Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment. Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace. To keep the body in good health is a duty. Otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear. It is better to travel well than to arrive.
