Light gives sight to all, even to its enemies; do likewise.

The world would have no sages if the universe had no fools.

It is easier to pluck a flower than to nurture it; which is why some would prefer to destroy your talents than nurture them.

Beautiful silence is better than ugly speech.

Water has no mouth, but swallows many. Light has no hands, but touches many. Wind has no feet, but carries many. Darkness has no teeth, but devours many.

If you seek money, be wise; if you seek power, be strong; if you seek honor, be virtuous; if you seek happiness, be yourself.

Peace gives you the world, laughter gives you the sky, joy gives you the world, and love gives you the galaxy.

When bitter, say little; when angry, say nothing; when happy, say much; when joyful, say all.

If you look to money for happiness, you will be disappointed; to power, you will be disillusioned; to honor, you will be dissatisfied; to others, you will be disenchanted; but if you look to God, you will be fulfilled.
