Sacred Books of the East: Including Selections from the Vedic Hymns, Zend-Avesta, Dhammapada, Upanishads, the Koran, and the Life of Buddha Quotes

“The man who is free from credulity, but knows the uncreated, who has cut all ties, removed all temptations, renounced all desires, he is the greatest of men.”

“An evil deed is better left undone, for a man repents of it afterwards; a good deed is better done, for having done it, one does not repent.”

“The scent of flowers does not travel against the wind; but the odor of good people travels; even against the wind: a good man pervades every place.”
