Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts of resentment are cherished in the mind. Anger will disappear just as soon as thoughts of resentment are forgotten.

Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.

“Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.”

“You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.”

Neither fire nor wind, birth nor death can erase our good deeds.

Should you find a wise critic to point out your faults, follow him as you would a guide to hidden treasure.

As an elephant in the battlefield withstands arrows shot from bows all around, even so shall I endure abuse.

Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow come and go like the wind. To be happy, rest like a giant tree in the midst of them all.

In separateness lies the world’s greatest misery; in compassion lies the world’s true strength.

Be a lamp for yourselves. Be your own refuge. Seek for no other. All things must pass. Strive on diligently. Don’t give up.

Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.

To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.

Without health life is not life; it is only a state of langour and suffering – an image of death.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, not to anticipate the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.

“One should strive to understand what underlies sufferings and diseases – and aim for health and well-being while gaining in the path.”

Those who have failed to work toward the truth have missed the purpose of living

Teach this triple truth to all: A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.

There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth…not going all the way, and not starting.

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.

I'm just a musical prostitute, my dear.

We're a bit flashy, but the music's not one big noise.

I think my melodies are superior to my lyrics.

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies, Fairy tales of yesterday will grow but never die, I can fly, my friends...

I guess I've always lived the glamorous life of a star. It 's nothing new - I used to spend down to the last dime.

Who wants to live forever?

I'm not into business at all.

Born to be kings, we're the princes of the Universe!

Inside my heart is breaking, My make-up may be flaking, But my smile, still, stays on!

The others don't like my interviews. And frankly, I don't care much for theirs.

Modern paintings are like women, you'll never enjoy them if you try to understand them.

What will I be doing in twenty years' time? I'll be dead, darling! Are you crazy?

But, you know, we spent two years putting our act together.

Does it mean this, does it mean that, that's all anybody wants to know. I'd say what any decent poet would say if anyone dared ask him to analyze his work: if you see it, darling, then it's there!

It's not a concert you are seeing, it's a fashion show.

You're headed for disaster cos you never read the signs Too much love will kill you every time

You know, I designed the Queen crest. I simply combined all the creatures that represent our star signs-and I don't even believe in astrology.

If you see it there, darling, then it's there.

If we're weird onstage, I don't know what you'd call the Tubes.

And, we have no such thing as a budget anymore. Our manager freaks when we show him the bill. We're lavish to the bone, but all our money goes back into the product.

I want to lead the Victorian life, surrounded by exquisite clutter.

I was never too keen on the British music press. They've called us a supermarket hype, and they used to suggest that we didn't write our own songs.

Interview? Oh don't be ridiculous.

The lavish presentation appeals to me, and I've got to convince the others.

We've gone overboard on every Queen album. But that's Queen.

I like to be surrounded by splendid things.

Get on your bikes and ride!

Years ago, I thought up the name Queen. It's just a name. But it's regal, obviously, and -sounds splendid.

The show must go on.

In the early days, we just wore black onstage. Very bold, my dear. Then we introduced white, for variety, and it simply grew and grew.
