Lo que pienses, lo serás. Lo que sientas, lo atraerás. Lo que imagines, lo crearás.

Buda

Compassion enhances our self-confidence because a calm mind allows our marvellous human intelligence to bloom. When we're angry, our thinking is distorted and we don't see the different aspects of reality. A calm mind enables us to take a broader, more realistic view.

14th Dalai Lama

However we may receive blows, and however knocked about we may be, the soul is there and is never injured. We are that infinite.

Swami Vivekananda

Meditation allows us to directly participate in our lives instead of living life as an afterthought.

Stephen Levine

We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.

Dalai Lama

Life needs both: thorns and roses, days and nights, happiness/unhappiness, birth/death. Be a witness to it all and you will know something that is beyond birth, beyond death; something that is beyond darkness and beyond light; something that is beyond happiness, beyond unhappiness.

Osho
