Zitate und Sprüche von Thich Nhat Hanh

Because of your smile, you make life more beautiful.

If you truly get in touch with a piece of carrot, you get in touch with the soil, the rain, the sunshine. You get in touch with Mother Earth and eating in such a way, you feel in touch with true life, your roots, and that is meditation. If we chew every morsel of our food in that way we become grateful and when you are grateful, you are happy.

Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy and serenity.

You carry Mother Earth within you. She is not outside of you. Mother Earth is not just your environment. In that insight of inter-being, it is possible to have real communication with the Earth, which is the highest form of prayer.

Schön zu sein bedeutet man selbst zu sein. Man braucht nicht von anderen akzeptiert zu werden. Man muss sich nur selbst akzeptieren.

To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.
