• The fool who knows his foolishness, is wise at least so far. But a fool who thinks himself wise, he is called a fool indeed.

• A Bhikshu (mendicant) who delights in reflection, who looks at thoughtlessness with fear, cannot fall away (from his perfect state)--he is close upon Nirvana.

• "One is the road that leads to wealth, another the road that leads to Nirvana;" if the Bhikshu, the disciple of Buddha, has learnt this, he will not yearn for honour, he will strive after separation from the world.
  
• Good people walk on whatever befall, the good do not prattle,longing for pleasure; whether touched by happiness or sorrow wise people never appear elated or depressed.
  
• He who always greets and constantly reveres the aged, four constantly reveres the aged, four things will increase to him: life, beauty, happiness, power.
  pain is the outcome of evil....happiness is the outcome of good.
  
• Even by the falling of water-drops
  a water-pot is filled;
  the fool becomes full of evil,
  even if he gather it little by little.
  Even by the falling of water-drops
  a water-pot is filled;
  the wise man becomes full of good, even if he gather it little by little.
  
• Health is the greatest of gifts, contentedness the best riches;
  trust is the best of relationships, Nirvana the highest happiness.
  
• Let a man overcome anger by love, let him overcome evil by good;let him overcome the greedy by liberality, the liar by truth!
  
• There is no fire like passion, there is no shark like hatred, there is no snare like folly, there is no torrent like greed.
  
• `All created things perish,'
  `All created things are grief
  and pain,'
  `All forms are unreal,'
  
• He who does not rouse himself when it is time to rise, who, though young and strong, is full of sloth, whose will and thought are weak, that lazy and idle man will never find the way to knowledge.
