There is no path to happiness. Happiness is the path.

Be a lamp unto yourself, be a refuge to yourself. Take yourself to no external refuge.

Just as a line drawn on water with a stick will quickly vanish and will not last long; even so is human life like a line drawn on water. It is short, limited, and brief; it is full of suffering, full of tribulation. This one should wisely understand, one should do good and live a pure life; for none who is born can escape death.

As the rain falls on the just and unjust alike, let your heart be untroubled by judgments and let your kindness rain down on all.

Friendship is the only cure for hatred, the only guarantee of peace.

The universe itself is change and life itself is but what you deem it.
