Develop the quiet even state of mind, when praised by some, condemned by others, free the mind from hate and pride and gently go your way in peace.

Develop the quiet even state of mind, when praised by some, condemned by others, free the mind from hate and pride and gently go your way in peace… Learn this from the waters: in mountain clefts and chasms, loud gush the streamlets, but great rivers flow silently.

~ The Buddha ~ [SN Nalakasuttam]
