He who knows others is wise. He who knows himself is enlightened.

Laozi

“It is through science that we prove, but through intuition that we discover.”

Jules Poincare

Mind precedes all mental states. Mind is their chief; they are all mind-wrought.

Genuine compassion is based not on our own projections and expectations but rather on the rights of the other: irrespective of whether another person is a close friend or an enemy, as long as that person wishes for peace and happiness and wishes to overcome suffering, then on that basis we develop a genuine concern for their problems.

Success is not about seeking constant external rewards; it's about finding intrinsic motivation and deriving satisfaction from the journey itself.

We need old friends to help us grow old and new friends to help us stay young.
