“Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.”

The goal is not to be better than the other man, but your previous self.

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.

Peace does not mean an absence of conflicts; differences will always be there.

Inner peace is the key: if you have inner peace, the external problems do not affect your deep sense of peace and tranquility.

Pain is inevitable,suffering is optional.

Seek to be an oasis of caring and concern as you live your life.

Compassion is the radicalism of our time.

Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives.

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.

Don’t get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.

Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.

Even though we may all become extinct, we can still leave our footprint in the sand.

It is hard to fail but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

Every wall is a door.

I think it is possible for ordinary people to choose to be extraordinary.

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

Learn to express, not impress.
