Famous quotes containing the words buddha and/or essence:
“After Buddha was dead, his shadow was still shown for centuries in a cave—a tremendous, gruesome shadow. God is dead; but given the way of man, there may still be caves for thousands of years in which his shadow will be shown.—And we—we still have to vanquish his shadow, too.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Substances at base divided
In their summits are united;
There the holy essence rolls,
One through separated souls.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
