— Gautama Buddha
Though one should conquer a thousand times a thousand men in battle, he who conquers his own self, is the greatest of all conquerers.

— Gautama Buddha
Oneself, indeed, is one’s saviour, for what other saviour would there be? With oneself well controlled one obtains a saviour difficult to find.
— Gautama Buddha
To cease from all evil, to cultivate good, to purify one’s mind: This is the advice of all Buddhas.
— Gautama Buddha
Victory breeds hatred. The defeated live in pain. Happily the peaceful live, giving up victory and defeat.
— Gautama Buddha
There is no fire like lust, no crime like hate. There is no ill like the body, no bliss higher than Peace.
— Gautama Buddha
Let go the past. Let go the future. Let go the present. Crossing to the farther shore of existence, with mind released from everything, do not again undergo birth and decay.
— Gautama Buddha
It is man’s own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.
— Gautama Buddha
