How do you want to create peace, if there is no peace inside yourselves?

Because you are alive, everything is possible.

The most precious gift we can offer anyone is our attention. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers.

Silence is essential. We need silence just as much as we need air, just as much as plants need light. If our minds are crowded with words and thoughts, there is no space for us.

Around us, life bursts with miracles, a glass of water, a ray of sunshine, a leaf, a caterpillar, a flower, laughter, raindrops.

To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.

It is not impermanence that makes us suffer. What makes us suffer is wanting things to be permanent when they are not.

Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.

Thanks to impermanence, everything is possible.

I know of no better thermometer to your spiritual temperature than this, the measure of the intensity of your prayer.

I'm one of those people that if you're told that if you put your hand in the fire, you'll burn your hand, I won't listen.

The mere fact of knowing that a great audience waits on your labor is enough to shake all your nerves to pieces.

When you are one with loss, the loss is experienced willingly.

Seeing a movie you're in is nothing like seeing a movie you're not in.

After you get stung, you can't get unstung no matter how much you whine about it.
