“No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.”

Learn this from the waters:
in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

sāvakā: see Ben's post above
"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

Re: Pali word association game
This is just a note to anyone who might be seeing boxes in any of the Pali words here, it is because you do not have Pali fonts downloaded on your computer. There are some resources in the announcements section of this Pali sub-forum showing you how to download (for free) Pali fonts with the Roman letters with the appropriate accent-pronunciation marks.

Metta (lovingkindness)
Rain soddens what is kept wrapped up,
But never soddens what is open;
Uncover, then, what is concealed,
Lest it be soddened by the rain.
