Whosoever harbour such thoughts will never be able to still their enmity.[/FONT]   [FONT=&quot]Never indeed is hatred stilled by hatred; it will only be stilled by non-hatred — this is an eternal law.[/FONT]                          [FONT=&quot]— Dhp 4-5[/FONT]           [FONT=&quot]Do not speak harshly to anyone. Those who are harshly spoken to might retaliate against you. Angry words hurt other’s feelings; even blows may overtake you in return.[/FONT]                          [FONT=&quot]— Dhp 133[/FONT]           [FONT=&quot]Forbearance is the highest observance. Patience is the highest virtue. So the Buddhas say.[/FONT]                          [FONT=&quot]— Dhp 184[/FONT]           [FONT=&quot]Let a man remove his anger. Let him root out his pride. Let him overcome all fetters of passions. No sufferings overtake him who neither clings to mind-and-body nor claims anything of the world.[/FONT]                          [FONT=&quot]— Dhp 221[/FONT]           [FONT=&quot]Conquer anger by non-anger. Conquer evil by good. Conquer miserliness by liberality. Conquer a liar by truthfulness.[/FONT]                          [FONT=&quot]— Dhp 223[/FONT]           [FONT=&quot]Guard your mind against an outburst of wrong feelings. Keep your mind controlled. Renouncing evil thoughts, develop purity of mind.[/FONT]                                           [FONT=&quot]— Dhp 233[/FONT]</blockquote>
