    “The thought manifests the word;
    The word manifests the deed;
    The deed develops into habit;
    And habit hardens into character;
    So watch the thought and its ways with care,
    And let them spring forth from love
    Born out of compassion for all beings.
    As the shadow follows the body, as we think, so we become.”
    ― Dhammapada
