“Take care of others wholeheartedly, of both our friends and our enemies. This is the basis for true compassion.”

If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.

A truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change even if they behave negatively or hurt you.

People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their own happiness or satisfaction.

Happiness doesn’t always come from a pursuit. Sometimes it comes when we least expect it.

People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness.

When you realize you’ve made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

All suffering is caused by ignorance.

There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done. One is called Yesterday and the other is called Tomorrow.

True change is within; leave the outside as it is.

The way to change others’ minds is with affection, and not anger.

Whether one is rich or poor, educated or illiterate, religious or nonbelieving, man or woman, black, white, or brown, we are all the same.

Give the ones you love wings to fly, roots to come back and reasons to stay.

An eye for an eye. We are all blind.

If someone has a gun and is trying to kill you, it would be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun.

The very purpose of our life is to seek happiness.

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.

I think when you’re in a relationship where you really care for the other person, when they achieve their dreams it’s better than when you do yourself.

Don’t confuse temporary interest for permanent caring.

I like to think that we’ve got a plan, so let’s stick to it. That said, once we’ve stuck to it, we’re allowed as much improvisation as anyone cares to indulge themselves in.

Age is just a number. Who cares how old the girl is that I date?

There’s a bottomless heart hooked into all of you and it’s wondering how much you care.

I’ve put up with more humiliation than I care to remember.

If you take care of the woman in the family, the whole family prospers. But when the mother falters, the family falls apart.

A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, “What are you thinking?”. She doesn’t care what you think.
