Quotes from the Classic Buddha

When comparing good times and bad times, people like good times. This is because under the same conditions, striving for a goal in good times is just like rowing a boat in smooth water, and favorable factors such as timing, location, and people make it easier for people to approach and achieve their goals. However, good times are also unfavorable to the development of one's career. The relaxed atmosphere and superior conditions in good times tend to make people arrogant, complacent, and weaken their will. The ancient saying "born in sorrow, die in peace and happiness" is a warning against the negative effects of good times. Positively utilizing the favorable conditions of good times and avoiding the negative effects of good times are two aspects of a problem that we should pay attention to in the journey of life. Here are 100 quotes from the Buddha that I have provided for you.
