Zen calendar quotes
"The knowledge of the ancients was perfect. How perfect? At first, they did not know that there were things. This is the most perfect knowledge: nothing can be added. Next, they knew that there were things, but did not yet make distinctions between them. Next, they made distinctions between them, but they did not yet pass judgments upon them. When judgements were passed, Tao was destroyed.
Chuang-TZO
"Our lives...are but a little while, so let them run as sweetly as you can, and give no thought to grief from day to day. For time is not concerned to keep our hopes, but hurries on its business, and is gone.
Euripides
"Painful it is indeed,
Passing through the world:
But in a hovel like this,
I live on in peace and quiet,
Winter rain falling.
Nijoin Sanuki
"Losing an illusion
makes you wiser
than finding a truth."
Ludwig Borne
"The greatest thing in the
world is to know how to be
one's own self."
Montaigne
"A person who doesn't know but knows that he doesn't know is a student: teach him.
A person who knows but who doesn't know that he knows is asleep: awaken him.
But a person who knows and knows that he knows is wise: follow him."
Old Asian proverb
"The seeing have the world in common."
Herakleitos
