Additional quotes by The Buddha

The growth of wisdom may be measured exactly by the diminution of ill temper

Though one should live a hundred years without wisdom and control, yet better, indeed, is a single day’s life of one who is wise and meditative.

Nothing ever exists entirely alone; everything is in relation to everything else.

Delightful are forests Where the public does not delight. There the passion-free delight, Not seeking sensual pleasure. - The Buddha
