To secure our own happiness and causes of happiness,
we must first act to create wholesome causes of happiness. We must create virtue.
We must engage in good conduct.
We must generate wholesome attitudes.
These are important.
— His Holiness the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa
When you express your anger you think you are getting anger out of your system, but that’s not true. When you express your anger, either verbally or with physical violence, you are feeding the seed of anger, and it becomes stronger in you.
— Thich Nhat Hanh
