"Stillness is the ruler of haste...." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“By compassion one can be brave.”

“Weapons are ominous tools. They are abhorred by all creatures. Anyone who follows the Way shuns them.”

“You should rule a great country As you would fry a small fish- With the least turning.”

“Whenever you step out of the noise of thinking, that is meditation, and a different state of consciousness arises.”

“True listening is another way of bringing stillness into the relationship. When you truly listen to someone, the dimension of stillness arises and becomes an essential part of the relationship.”

“It's a wonderful thing to perceive the world and to interact with it and with other people and nature from that deep place of utter stillness, where the compulsion to immediately label and interpret whatever arises around you is no longer there.”

“Isn't it a pleasure to study and practice what you have learned? Isn't it also great when friends visit from distant places? If one remains not annoyed when he is not understood by people around him, isn't he a sage?”

“Patience as we wait to take action is a kind of compassionate mind. Impatience on the other hand can be a source of failure.”

“You build a successful life a day at a time.”
