Noi siamo ciò che pensiamo. Tutto quello che siamo sorge dai nostri pensieri. I nostri pensieri costruiscono il mondo.

Migliaia di candele possono venire accese da una singola candela, e la vita della candela non sarà abbreviata. La felicità non diminuisce mai con l’essere condivisa

Nella mente ha origine la sofferenza; nella mente ha origine la cessazione della sofferenza.

Il cambiamento non è mai doloroso. Solo la resistenza al cambiamento lo è.

Non c’è niente di costante tranne il cambiamento.

Il profumo dei fiori non va contro vento, non quello del sandalo, del tagara e del gelsomino; il profumo dei buoni va contro vento: un uomo retto pervade tutte le regioni.

Prima di parlare domandati se ciò che dirai corrisponde a verità, se non provoca male a qualcuno, se è utile, ed infine se vale la pena turbare il silenzio per ciò che vuoi dire.

Se tiri troppo la corda di una chitarra la romperai, ma se la lasci troppo allentata non suonerà. Imparare è Cambiare. La strada dell’Illuminazione sta nella via di Mezzo. È la linea che sta tra tutti gli opposti estremi.

Realizzare la propria salvezza è compito immediato di ogni uomo. Vi sarà tempo per una comprensione sempre maggiore dell’Insegnamento percorrendo la Via. Intanto, si inizi ad affrontare la vita, quale è, imparando sempre dall’esperienza diretta e personale.

Il primo fatto dell’esistenza è la legge del cambiamento o impermanenza. La vita è un continuo fluire, e colui che si aggrappa a qualsiasi forma, per quanto splendida, soffrirà resistendo alla corrente.

Retta Visione, Retto Risoluzione, Retta Parola, Retta Azione, Retti Mezzi di sussistenza, Retto Sforzo, Retta Consapevolezza, Retta Concentrazione.

What a dichotomy. What conflicting ideas that we love and embrace these women, and entrust them to raise our children and to feed us and to bathe us, but we keep something as silly as a bathroom separate.

Today, we stand as a united country and are much closer to the ideals set forth in our Constitution that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Creativity is the joy of not knowing it all.

I've got some great guy friends. They can start out as crushes. But when you realize something isn't going to happen, you make a choice whether or not the friendship is worth it. And it usually is. Then you can laugh about the fact that you used to have a crush on him or he had one on you.

We see great growth in the United States. But also in China, Brazil, the U.K., and other markets around the world. So ecommerce is going to continue to be a great story for Walmart.

If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.

I certainly don't sit around in the morning making pancakes listening to Whitehouse or anything.

Most of us can read the writing on the wall; we just assume it's addressed to someone else.

The Majestic Theater in 1990. That was one of my first real shows where I had 300 to 400 people there.

Usually, watching yourself is pretty awful. People think we all love watching our own films. We don't. We cringe away from it.

I don't even know what TV star means. I know there's a difference in how people approach you, compared to movies. They feel OK coming up to you and sitting with you in a restaurant, unfortunately.

Shinji Kagawa is one of the best players in the world, and he now plays 20 minutes at Manchester United - on the left wing! My heart breaks. Really, I have tears in my eyes. Central midfield is Shinji's best role.

Life asks not merely what you can do; it asks how much can you endure and not be spoiled.

Lots of people have gone from public housing to do great things in the world and have a tremendous sense of duty to their fellow man because of it.

I put for the general inclination of all mankind, a perpetual and restless desire of power after power, that ceaseth only in death.

Politeness can at once be the indifferent affliction of the ˜civilized' as well as a subterfuge for the designed offence.

I grew up in the D.C. area, and I used to wear a Redskins jersey just walking around. I just had kind of a bowl haircut for a long time and no sense of style or personal hygiene. But the main thing was the haircut. You know, when you see a haircut of yourself from around 12 or 13, it's rough. I also had really bad acne.

We've been able to have our cake and eat it, too. Every song, every T-shirt, is absolutely a pure expression of what we want to do. And it connects.

While my life shifts from refugee camps to red carpets, I choose them both because these worlds can, in fact, coexist. And for me, they must.

To me, the object of practicing is to allow you to play what you hear. But you're always hearing new things, so you never get to the end of it.

The most important thing to remember is this: To be ready at any moment to give up what you are for what you might become.

Playwrights are like men who have been dining for a month in an Indian restaurant. After eating curry night after night they deny the existence of asparagus.

One of my biggest inspirations is President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela. Yea, President Hugo.

But we're still in somewhat a Puritanical society in a lot of ways.
