It is easy for the good person to do good deeds, but for the evil one it is difficult to do good deeds. It is easy for the evil person to do bad deeds, but it is difficult for the good one to do bad deeds.
- Udana
Fools, their wisdom weak, are their own enemies as they go through life, doing evil that bears bitter fruit.
- Dhammapada, 66, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
Develop the mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect the poise of the mind: follow the calmness, the absence of pride.
- Sutta Nipata
He who has put away evil, who is humble, free from impurity, self restrained, versed in knowledge, leading a holy life, That man may be truly called a Brahmana. For him there are no desires anywhere in the world.
- Udana
What is the benefit of exerting mental effort the wrong way?
