Good Quotations A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker. 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 There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it. Buddha To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him. Buddha Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue. Buddha To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear. 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 Virtue is persecuted more by the wicked than it is loved by the good. Buddha The virtues, like the Muses, are always seen in groups. A good principle was never found solitary in any breast. Buddha
