Quotes from Dhammapada

The thought manifests the word; The word manifests the deed; The deed develops into habit; And habit hardens into character; So watch the thought and its ways with care, And let them spring forth from love Born out of compassion for all beings. As the shadow follows the body, as we think, so we become.

Overcome anger with peace. Overcome evil with good. Overcome greed with generosity. Overcome liars with truth.

While a man desires a woman, His mind is boundAs closely as a calf to its mother.As you would pluck an autumn lily, Pluck the arrow of desire.
