Words of the Buddha was created by Garm
“There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills.”

~ Buddha

No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.

Sounds like Qui-gon does it not? ;)

He who experiences the unity of life sees his own Self in all beings, and all beings in his own Self, and looks on everything with an impartial eye.

To be idle is a short road to death and to be diligent is a way of life; foolish people are idle, wise people are diligent.

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become

...and that which we imagine (which creates a new reality) comes from what has once already happened. So to understand what was is to understand what is and will be.
