Whosoever knows others is clever
  whosoever knows himself is wise
  whosoever conquers others has force
  whosoever conquers himself is strong
  whosoever asserts himself has will power
  whosoever is self-sufficient is rich
  whosoever doesn't lose his place has duration
  whosoever doesn't perish in death lives.

-- Lao Tzu (531 - 604 BC)  

What we are doing is nothing,
  but a drop in the ocean.
  But if we didn't do it, the ocean'd be less
  because of that missing drop.


-- Mother Teresa  

When someone is seeking
  he only sees the thing that he is seeking;
  he is unable to find anything,
  ...unable to absorb anything,
  because he is only thinking...
  ...of the thing he is seeking,
  because he has a goal,
  because he is obsessed with his goal.

-- The Dhammapada (543 BC)  

Would that you could live...
  ...on the fragrance of the earth,
  like an air plant be sustained by the light.

  But since you must kill to eat,
  and rob the newly born of
  its mother's milk to quench your thirst,
  let it then be an act of worship,

  And let your board stand an alter on which
  the pure and the innocent of forest and plain
  are sacrificed for that which is purer and still
  more innocent in man.

-- Kahlil Gibran  

If your mind is empty,
  it is always ready for anything;
  it is open to everything.
  In the beginner's mind there are possibilities,
  in the expert's mind there are few.

-- Suzuki Roshi  

Ten thousand flowers in spring,
  The moon in autumn.
  A cool breeze in summer,
  Snow in winter.
  If your mind isn't clouded...
  ...by unnecessary things,
  This is the best season of your life.

-- Wu-men.  

Genius is the ability to...
  ...reduce the complicated to the simple

-- C. W. Ceren  

Generosity is giving more than you can,
  and pride is taking less than you need.

-- Kalil Gibran  

Obstacles are those frightful things...
  ...when you take your eyes off your goal.

-- Henry Ford.  

Only two mistakes along the road to truth:
  1. Not going all the way
  2. Not starting!

-- Buddha

      "พียงลูกเกิด ใต้หล้า มหากษัตริย์
       ในแผ่นดิน ถิ่นรัฐ เปรียบดังฝัน
       มีพ่อปก เหนือเกศา บุญอนันต์
       น้อมชีวัน บังคมกราบ ทราบพระคุณ

          ลูกจะขอ มุ่งเล่าเรียน เพียรศึกษา
          นำวิชา กลับชาติไทย ช่วยเกื้อหนุน
          เพราะรักถิ่น ดินแดนที่ ธ ค้ำจุน
          ซึ้งการุณ ขอรับใช้ พ่อแผ่นดิน
      "

      ด้วยเกล้าด้วยกระหม่อมขอเดชะ
      ขอจงทรงพระเจริญยิ่งยื่นนาน...

    this thoughtless man cannot enjoy the life of holiness:
    he is like a cowherd who counts the cows of his master"
