Buddhist Quotes

Hey people and welcome to my Buddhist quotes page. Buddhism is a set of beliefs and practices that are considered a religion by most. It originated from the man named Buddha generations ago. As much as I am not a religious person I can recognize wisdom when I see it and the following Buddhist quotes are filled with it.

• Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful.
• Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.
• An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.
• Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
• On life's journey Faith is nourishment,Virtuous deeds are a shelter,Wisdom is the light by day and Right mindfulness is the protection by night.If a man lives a pure life nothing can destroy him;If he has conquered greed nothing can limit his freedom.
• We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make our world.
• Fill your mind with compassion.
• Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.
• Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
• Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts of resentment are cherished in the mind. Anger will disappear just as soon as thoughts of resentment are forgotten.
• The Four ReliancesFirst, rely on the spirit and meaning of the teachings, not on the words;Second, rely on the teachings, not on the personality of the teacher;Third, rely on real wisdom, not superficial interpretation;And fourth, rely on the essence of your pure Wisdom Mind, not on judgmental perceptions.
• You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
• To be idle is a short road to death and to be diligent is a way of life; foolish people are idle, wise people are diligent.
• Neither fire nor wind, birth nor death can erase our good deeds.
• Pay no attention to the faults of others,things done or left undone by others.Consider only what by oneself is done or left undone.
