Smile, breathe and go slowly.

5 quotes from Thich Nhat Hanh:

In true dialogue, both sides are willing to change. (Thich Nhat Hanh)

When we develop concentration on interbeing, on the interconnectedness of all things, we see that if we make them suffer they will make us suffer in return.
(Thich Nhat Hanh)

Life is both dreadful and wonderful. How can I smile when I am filled with so much sorrow? It is natural—you need to smile to your sorrow because you are more than your sorrow. (Thich Nhat Hanh)

I am inviting you to go deeper, to learn and to practice so that you become someone who has a great capacity for being solid, calm, and without fear, because our society needs people like you who have these qualities, and your children, our children, need people like you, in order to go on, in order to become solid, and calm, and without fear. (Thich Nhat Hanh)

Smile, breathe and go slowly. (Thich Nhat Hanh)
