Honesty without kindness, humor, and goodheartedness can be just mean.

Pema Chödrön

Men, driven on by thirst, run about like a snared hare; let therefore mendicant drive out thirst, by striving after passionlessness for himself.

Buddha

There is no fire like passion, there is no shark like hatred, there is no snare like folly, there is no torrent like greed.

Buddha

Treat every moment as your last. It is not preparation for something else.

Shunryu Suzuki

Whatever a monk keeps pursuing with his thinking and pondering, that becomes the inclination of his awareness.

Buddha

If you wish to know the divine, feel the wind on your face and the warm sun on your back.
