‎"I prefer Buddhism because it gives three principles in combination, which no other religion does. Buddhism teaches prajna (understanding as against superstition and supernaturalism), karuna (loving-kindness), and samata (equality). This is what man wants for a good and happy life. Neither god nor soul can save society."

- Dr B. R. Ambedkar

With a Little Help from my Friends

If you really want to become skillful in your thoughts, words, and deeds, you need a trustworthy friend to point out your blind spots. And because those spots are blindest around your unskillful habits, the primary duty of a trustworthy friend is to point out your faults—for only when you see your faults can you correct them; only when you correct them are you benefiting from your friend’s compassion in pointing them out.
- Thanissaro Bhikkhu, “The Power of Judgment”
