An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.
The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward.
The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.
Learning to ignore things is one of the great paths to inner peace.
If someone thinks that peace and love are just a cliche that must have been left behind in the 60s, that’s a problem. Peace and love are eternal.
It is always the false that makes you suffer, the false desires and fears, the false values and ideas, the false relationships between people. Abandon the false and you are free of pain; truth makes happy, truth liberates.
Forgiveness is not an occasional act, it is a constant attitude.
Whenever you are confronted with an opponent, conquer him with love.
This is my simple religion. No need for temples. No need for complicated philosophy. Your own mind, your own heart is the temple. Your philosophy is simple kindness.
In the long run, the sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit.
I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.
Overcome the devils with a thing called love.
