Do not say a little in many words but a great deal in few

Be a person of value; never seek approval to be yourself.

Love is the wisdom of the fool and the folly of the wise.

The tongue like a sharp knife Kills without drawing blood

Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves

The fates lead him who will; him who won't they drag.

Luck always seems to be against the man who depends on it

The master observes the world but trusts his inner vision

I would rather risk failure than achieve it without risk.

If you don t stand for something you ll fall for anything

Knowing others is wisdom knowing yourself is enlightenment

A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new

Worth of life depends on how much love you invested in it.

Miseries are often an option and it depends on perception.

I have lived with several Zen masters -- all of them cats.
