Additional quotes by The Buddha

A wise man, recognising that the world is but an illusion, does not act as if it is real, so he escapes the suffering

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.
