"Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions."

"I find hope in the darkest of days, and focus in the brightest. I do not judge the universe."

"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion."

"It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come."

"The purpose of our lives is to be happy."

"Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive."

"We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves."

"With realization of one's own potential and self-confidence in one's ability, one can build a better world."
