#calm

Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.

If you would not be of an angry temper, do not feed your habit; give it nothing which may increase the disorder.

When they are transformed, and desire raises its head, I quell it with the nameless simplicity.

Muddy water is best cleared by leaving it alone.

The most intense conflicts, if overcome, leave behind a sense of security and calm that is not easily disturbed.

Acceptance of what has happened is the first step to overcoming the consequences of any misfortune.

The calm or agitation of our temper does not depend so much on the vast affairs of life as on a commodious or disagreeable arrangement of little things.

Be pure, be calm, and work on without ceasing.

All power belongs to the calm mind.

To lose patience is to lose the battle.

Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding.

Silence is the great teacher of restraint.

Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.

Overcome anger by non-anger; overcome evil by good; overcome the miser by liberality; overcome the liar by truth.

Calmness of mind is the supreme jewel.

No fire equals passion; no shark equals hatred.

Walk the righteous path with joy and steady calm.

The mind is quieted by tracing every ripple back to its origin.

Equanimity is the supreme mark of wisdom.

Remain calm, serene, always in command of yourself. You will then find out how easy it is to get along.

Breathe in peace; breathe out all anxiety.

Inner peace is the foundation of all authentic power.

Cultivate deep inner stillness like the depths of the sea.

Dwell in the fortress of unshakeable calm.

Radiate the calm light of the spirit to all who suffer.

No need to hurry. No need to sparkle. No need to be anybody but oneself.

A man does not gaze into running water to see his face; he gazes into still water.

Words are like waves: when agitated by passion, they roar; when quieted by wisdom, they reflect the moon.

Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.

Breathing in, I calm body and mind. Breathing out, I smile. Dwelling in the present moment, I know this is the only moment.
