Look Within
“There is no fire like greed, no crime like hatred, no sorrow like separation, no sickness like hunger of heart, and no joy like the joy of freedom. Health, contenment and trust are your greatest possessions and freedom is your greatest joy. Look within. Be still. Free from fear and attachment, know the joy of living in the way.”
The Buddha, Translated by Thomas Byrom, Dhammapada

Harmlessness
“All beings tremble before violence. All fear death. All love life. See yourself in others. Then whom can you hurt?. What harm can you do?. He who seeks happiness by hurting those who seek happiness will never find happiness. For your brother is like you. He wants to be happy. Never harm him. And when you leave this life, you too will find happiness.”
