*The Middle Way
The path of life to
follow that is neither
too strict nor too easy
Hatreds never cease by hatred in this world; by love alone they cease. This is an ancient law
The reputation of him who is energetic, mindful, pure in deed, considerate, self-controlled, right-living,
and heedful steadily increases
Calm is his mind, calm is his speech, calms is his action, who, rightly knowing, is wholly freed,
perfectly peaceful, and self-controlled
Irrigators lead the waters; carpenters bend the wood; the wise control themselves
As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind, so the wise are not ruffled by praise or blame
Dalai lama
