A selection of quotes from Daisaku Ikeda’s published works on inspiration for daily living.
February 26
From the standpoint of eternity, there is hardly any difference between a “long" and a “short" life. Therefore, it’s not whether one’s life is long or short, but how one lives that is important. It is what we accomplish, the degree to which we develop our state of life, the number of people we help become happy―that is what matters.
From The Wisdom of the Lotus Sutra.
