Buddha quotes
You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and
affection.

You will be punished by your anger.
Buddha
If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly our whole life would change.
Buddha
Neither fire nor wind, birth nor death can erase our good deeds.
Buddha
Nothing can harm you as much as your own thoughts unguarded.
Buddha
There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison
that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and
hurts; it is a sword that kills.
Buddha
What we think, we become.
Buddha
The tongue like a sharp knife. It kills without drawing blood.
Buddha
The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you,
depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.
Buddha
Every morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most.
Buddha
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find 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.
Buddha
Do not look for a sanctuary in anyone except your self.
Buddha
Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again, and you will be filled with joy.
Buddha
There is no path to happiness: happiness is the path.
Buddha
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil
thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him,
like a shadow that never leaves him.
Buddha
If your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete.
Buddha
If a traveller does not meet with one who is his better, or his equal, let him firmly keep to his
solitary journey; there is no companionship with a fool.
Buddha
As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind, the wise are not moved by praise or blame.
Buddha
To force oneself to believe and to accept a thing without understanding is political, and not
spiritual or intellectual.
Buddha
Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.
Buddha
If we fail to look after others when they need help, who will look after us?
Buddha
The greatest prayer is patience.
Buddha
Kindness should become the natural way of life, not the exception.
Buddha
To insist
on a spiritual practice that served you in the past is to carry the raft on your back
after you have crossed the river.
Buddha
I do not
believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that
falls on them unless they act.
Buddha
It is a
man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.
Buddha
Believe
not because some old manuscripts are produced, believe not because it is your
national belief, believe not because you have been made to believe from your childhood, but
reason truth out, and after you have analyzed it, then if you find it will do good to one and
all, believe it, live up to it and help others live up to it.
Buddha
The only
real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows.
Buddha
