How I long to see among dawn flowers, the face of God.

Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise. Seek what they sought.

No matter where your interest lies, you will not be able to accomplish anything unless you bring your deepest devotion to it.

Before enlightenment, chopping wood and carrying water. After enlightenment, chopping wood and carrying water.

Mountain-rose petals Falling, falling, falling now... Waterfall music

There is nothing you can see that is not a flower; there is nothing you can think that is not the moon.

Sitting quietly, doing nothing, Spring comes, and the grass grows, by itself.

Make the universe your companion, always bearing in mind the true nature of things-mountains and rivers, trees and grasses, and humanity-and enjoy the falling blossoms and the scattering leaves.

Learn how to listen as things speak for themselves.

A flute with no holes is not a flute.

Come, butterfly It's late- We've miles to go together.

A challenge to your bad luck is your confidence. Your confidence, you and your patience is your good luck.

In a big family the first child is kind of like the first pancake. If it's not perfect, that's okay, there are a lot more coming along.

I'm focused on being the best, making history.

I love museums, and I think they're fantastic, but they don't touch the people who I frequently think need to be touched with at least some reminder of legacy.

If I have someone who believes in me, I can move mountains.

Storytelling and elegant style don't always go hand in hand.

Only positive consequences encourage good future performances.

Art... can become the direct organization of more highly evolved sensations.

Jowa na kita? Thank you! Merry Christmas!
