If a man smite thee on one cheek, smash him on the other.

It is the Spirit that gives life. The words I have spoken to you, they are Spirit and they are Life.

All that we are is a result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of out thoughts. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him, as the wheel follows the foot of the ox that draws the carriage.
They who imagine truth in untruth and see untruth in truth, never arrive at truth, but follow vain desires. They who know truth in truth, and untruth in untruth, arrive at truth and follow true desires. As rain breaks through an ill-thatched house, passion will break through an unreflecting mind. As rain does not break through a well -thatched house, passion will not break through a well reflecting mind.
If a man's faith is unsteady, if he does not know the true law, if his peace of mind is troubled, his knowledge will never be perfect.
The Dhammapada

The Gospel interviews according to Primordial Annihilator Chapter 4 (Lucifer) v3
3 'There is no omni super creator God as such' said Lucifer as he calmly sipped the remains of a sixth banana dakri.
'But there are gods' he paused to neatly flick an innocent fly that had taken a natural interest in his rather nauseating fruit based cocktail, into the open mouth of a yawning waitress nearby.
'And there are Gods...'
Lucifer stood up, farted generously and left without paying as usual and I had to walk home in the rain having spent all my money in the bar.

"And now, I, Moroni, would speak somewhat concerning these things; I would show unto the world that faith is things which are hoped for and not seen; wherefore, dispute not because ye see not, for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith." - Ether 12:6
"It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman." Proverbs 21:19 (KJV-LDS Edition)
"It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house." - Proverbs 25:24 (KJV-LDS Edition)
"To a reasonable creature, that alone is unsupportable which is unreasonable; but everything reasonable may be supported...In short...no creature is oppressed so much by anything, as by what is unreasonable; nor...attracted to anything so strongly, as to what is unreasonable.
But it happens that different things are reasonable and unreasonable...good and bad, advantageous and disadvantageous, to different persons. On this account...we stand in need of a liberal education, to teach us to adapt the preconceptions of reasonable and unreasonable to particular cases, conformably to nature. But to judge of reasonable and unreasonable, we make use not only of a due estimation of things without us, but of what relates to each person's particular character."
- Epictetus, Moral Discourses, I.II.9 "In what Manner, Upon Every Occasion, to Preserve our Character"
"For wherein a man is free, nothing can restrain or compel him." - Epictetus, Moral Discourses (Cannot remember the exact location, unfortunately)

"O beloved friends! Whoever adorneth his character with such virtues will be reckoned among the true servants of God, and his name will be commemorated by the Concourse on High; but he who depriveth himself thereof shall not be accounted of their number.

"The chief duty of every new age is to upraise new men to determine its liberties, to lead it
towards material success - to rend the rusty padlocks and chains of dead custom that
always prevent healthy expansion. Theories and ideas that may have meant life and hope
and freedom for our ancestors may now mean destruction, slavery, and dishonor to us!"
The Satanic Bible-Book of Satan II, verse 8

"(From the Papyrus of Nu, Sheet 21)
THE CHAPTER OF COMING FORTH AGAINST ENEMIES IN KHERT-NETER.
The Osiris Nu saith:- Hail, Am-a-f (Eater of his arm), I have passed over the road. I am Ra. I have come forth from the horizon against my enemies. I have not permitted him to escape from me. I have stretched out my hand like that of the Lord of the Urrt Crown. I have lifted up my feet even as the Uraei-goddesses lift themselves up. I have not permitted the enemy [to be saved] from me. As for mine enemy, he hath been given to me, and he shall not be delivered from me. I stand up like Horus. I sit down like Ptah. I am strong like Thoth. I am mighty like Tem. I walk with my legs. I speak with my mouth. I chase my enemy. He hath been given unto me, and he shall not be delivered from me."

SHIVA SANHITA
CHAPTER I.
EXISTENCE ONE ONLY.
KNOWLEDGE only is eternal; it is without beginning or end; there exists no other real substance. The
diversities which we see in the world are results of sense-condition; when the latter cease, then knowledge
only, and nothing else, remain.
2-3. Shiva, the lover of his devotees, and giver of spiritual emancipation to all creatures, having
discarded all those doctrines of the wranglers which cause false knowledge thus declares the science of
Yoganusasan (the exposition of Yoga). It is for the spiritual disenthralment of persons whose minds are
undistracted.
