Seneca
We are not given a short life; we make it short
“It is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it.”
Dōgen
Practice and realization are one (shushō ittō)
“To study the Buddha Way is to study the self. To study the self is to forget the self.”
Omar Khayyam
The present is the only possession: the rest is memory or guess
“Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.”
Marcus Aurelius
You have power over your mind, not outside events
“You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
