“There isn’t enough darkness in all the world to snuff out the light of one little candle.”

If you truly loved yourself, you could never hurt another.

The past is already gone, the future is not yet here. There’s only one moment for you to live, and that is the present moment

Attachment leads to suffering.

The ignorant man is an ox. He grows in size, not in wisdom.

A man is not called wise because he talks and talks again; but if he is peaceful, loving and fearless then he is in truth called wise.

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.

May all that have life be delivered from suffering.

When you come upon a path that brings benefit and happiness to all, follow this course as the moon journeys through the stars.

As rain falls equally on the just and the unjust, do not burden your heart with judgements but rain your kindness equally on all.

Kindness should become the natural way of life,not the exception.

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

Like the moon, come out from behind the clouds! Shine.

A jug fills drop by drop.

What you are is what you have been. What you’ll be is what you do now.

There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it.

You will not be punished for your anger; you will be punished by your anger.

Attempting to understand consciousness with your mind, is like trying to illuminate the sun with a candle.

Behold a candle, how it gives its light. It weeps its life away drop by drop in order to give forth its flame of light.

Do not become the candle that gives light to others but itself remains in darkness.

Girl, there ain’t a boy in this town who can hold a candle to Beau Vincent with his shirt off.

It snowed and snowed, the whole world over, Snow swept the world from end to end. A candle burned on the table; A candle burned.

First lesson learned: Knowing doesn’t hold a candle to doing.

You meditate and you got the candles, you got the incense and you’ve been chanting, and all of a sudden you hear this voice: ‘Write this down’

I burned the candle at both ends and it often gave a lovely light.
