Thich Nhat Hanh

People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong. Why not try and see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom?

Thich Nhat Hanh

Love is the capacity to take care, to protect, to nourish. If you are not capable of generating that kind of energy toward yourself if you are not capable of taking care of yourself, of nourishing yourself, of protecting yourself it is very difficult to take care of another person. To love oneself is the foundation of the love of other people. Love is a practice.

Obstacles are the distractions you see when you take your eyes off of your goals.

When two people in a business always agree, one of them is unnecessary.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama

"Human beings by nature want happiness and do not want suffering. With that feeling everyone tries to achieve happiness and tries to get rid of suffering. In this way, all here are the same, whether rich or poor, educated or uneducated, Easterner or Westerner, believer or non-believer, and within believers whether Buddhist, Christian, Jewish, or Muslim. From the viewpoint of human value we are all the same."

Dr. Albert Schweitzer

I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know; the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found out how to serve others.
