The Buddha

The Buddha (this saying recorded in the 3rd century)

"A seeker will master this earth,
this world of death and radiant beings.
A seeker will gather a well-taught verse on the way
as a skilled gardener gathers a flower."

• From The Dhammapada (Verses on the Way, Chapter 4), recorded in the 3rd century BCE. Translation by Glenn Wallis, 2004.
