Liezi
“Travel is such a wonderful experience! Especially when you forget you are traveling. Then you will enjoy whatever you see and do. Those who look into themselves when they travel will not think about what they see. In fact, there is no distinction between the viewer and the seen. You experience everything with the totality of yourself, so that every blade of grass, every mountain, every lake is alive and is a part of you. When there is no division between you and what is other, this is the ultimate experience of traveling.”
Liezi, Lieh-tzu: A Taoist Guide to Practical Living

“I wish I could show you,
When you are lonely or in darkness,

The Astonishing Light
Of your own Being!”
Hafez, The Divan

“The weak have remedies, the wise have joys; superior wisdom is superior bliss.”
Edward Young

“Now that your worry has proved such an unlucrative business,

Hafez, The Poetry Pharmacy Returns: More Prescriptions for Courage, Healing and Hope

Gautama Buddha
“All beings tremble before violence.
All fear death.
All love life.

See yourself in others.
Then whom can you hurt?
What harm can you do?”
Siddhartha Gautama, The Dhammapada
