I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
Buddha

However many holy words you read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act on upon them?
Buddha

In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then beleive them to be true.
Buddha

We are formed and molded by our thoughts. Those whose minds are shaped by selfless thoughts give joy when they speak or act. Joy follows them like a shadow that never leaves them.
Buddha

Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.
Buddha

When one has the feeling of dislike for evil, when one feels tranquil, one finds pleasure in listening to good teachings; when one has these feelings and appreciates them, one is free of fear.
Buddha

It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.
Mother Teresa

Let us not be satisfied with just giving money. Money is not enough, money can be got, but they need your hearts to love them. So, spread your love everywhere you go.
Mother Teresa

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning.
Maya Angelou
