Does anyone else like Zen quotes/Buddhist quotes? I find them very reassuring when I am having a bad day...

I found this quote which I believe is inspiring when I feel my emotions are controlling me:

People in the world cannot identify their own mind. They believe that what they see, or hear, or feel, or know, is mind. They are blocked, and so cannot see the brilliant spirit of their original mind....Huang-po.

I do. I find them to be very enlightening. A good book to have is the Tao te Ching. I have a copy and find myself looking through it quite often.
