Wise Words


So, tomorrow is my good friend's birthday and I was looking for a quote for her card. I ran across a quote by the Buddha and really liked it so here are a few that I really liked.

"All things appear and disappear because of the concurrence of causes and conditions. Nothing ever exists entirely alone; everything is in relation to everything else."

"Ambition is like love, impatient both of delays and rivals."

"Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense."

"He who loves 50 people has 50 woes; he who loves no one has no woes."

"The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows."

"Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth."

I found all of these really intresting in their own way and figured I would share them to whoever cares to look. I think I may do another entry similar to this in the future.
