One action produces a reaction; that is karma.

Be blissful and enjoy your life; do not let yourself become obsessed with anything. Determine to use the rest of your life to benefit others as much as possible.

When you check your own mind properly, you stop blaming others for your problems.

The mind is very powerful. Therefore, it requires firm guidance. A powerful jet plane needs a good pilot; the pilot of your mind should be the wisdom that understands its nature.

Examine your own mental attitudes. Become your own therapist.

Just the idea that you are religious doesn't help at all. It does not help you; it does not help others. In order to really help others, you need to gain knowledge-wisdom.

First of all, merely by living a simple life with a heart dedicated to overcoming self-cherishing, we automatically benefit others.

No matter how confused or deluded we may be at the moment, the underlying and essential nature of our being is clear and pure

There's a big difference between being able to explain religion intellectually and transforming that knowledge into spiritual experience.

Be wise. Treat yourself, your mind, sympathetically, with loving kindness. If you are gentle with yourself, you will become gentle with others.

Knowing your own mind is the solution to all our problems.

If a problem can be solved, there is nothing to worry about. If it can't be solved, well you can always buy chocolate :)

My heart goes out to victims and survivors of the Hurricane Katrina tragedy and to their families. This disaster will go down in history books as one of the largest natural disasters in U.S. history.

Where thou art, that is home.

I do not believe that artists or actors and people should be out there like voicing their full-blown opinions on politics because, let's face it, at the end of the day, I'm not that smart of a guy.

If we want to produce people who share the values of a democratic culture, they must be taught those values and not be left to acquire them by chance.

Then I go in the den and turn on Law & Order, since the only thing i can really count on in life is that whenever I turn on the TV, there will be a Law & Order episode.

I have known him nearly all my life, and I am going to marry him, so that there won't ever be a time when I shan't know him.

It's always the same, Combs walks, Koening singles, Ruth hits one out of the park, Gehrig doubles, Lazzeri triples. Then Dugan goes in the dirt on his can.

Be careful who you get advice from. I get advice from people who are where I want to be.

I think people do have their own minds.
