Additional quotes by The Buddha

yt wise man, recognizing that the world is but an
illusion, does not act as if it is real, so (therefore)
he escapes the suffering.

Embrace nothing:
If you meet the Buddha, kill the Buddha.
If you meet your father, kill your father.
Only live your life as it is,
Not bound to anything.
