“The undisciplined mind confuses misfortune with mistakes.”

“A disciplined mind leads to happiness, and an undisciplined mind leads to suffering.”

“There is nothing so disobedient as an undisciplined mind, and there is nothing so obedient as a disciplined mind.”

“An undisciplined mind is a wasted one, which will be reflected in the life of the one who possesses such a mind.”

“Whether our action is wholesome or unwholesome depends on whether that action or deed arises from a disciplined or undisciplined state of mind. It is felt that a disciplined mind leads to happiness and an undisciplined mind leads to suffering, and in fact it is said that bringing about discipline within one's mind is the essence of the Buddha's teaching.”

“Work is an anchor; it prevents the undisciplined minds drifting to the past. It keeps them in the present time.”
