Dhammapada 67 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


5 - Balavagga, The Fool
8 - Kassaka Vatthu

Na tam kammam katam sadhu, yam katva anutappati;
yassa assumukho rodam, vipakam patisevati.
67: That deed is not well done, if one has to repent for having done it, and if, with a tearful face, one has to weep as a result of that deed.

Dhamma for Lifestyle (20)


Decorator
 

Your wealth can decorate only your house but not you.
Only your own virtue can decorate you.

Your dress can decorate your body not you.
Only your good conduct can decorate you.

We should rather die as man than live as animals.

(Byron)
