Love and Wisdom

If it looks like wisdom but is unkind, it's not wisdom.
If it feels like love but it's not wise, it's not love.
- Lama Surya Das

It is literally true that you can succeed best and
quickest by helping others to succeed.
- Napoleon Hill

The truth of the matter is that
you always know the right thing to do.
The hard part is doing it.
- Norman Schwarzkoff

I have found the paradox,
that if you love until it hurts,
there can be no more hurt, only more love.
- Mother Teresa

All that we are is the result of what we have thought.
If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him.
If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought,
happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.
- The Buddha

True love is wise. Giving a child a third candy bar is not love.
True wisdom is never hurtful. Harming another has both "real world" and karmic costs.
