"In the end, no one can escape death. The sufferings at that time will be exactly like what we are experiencing now. Since death is the same in either case, you should be willing to offer your life for the Lotus Sutra. This of this offering as a drop of dew rejoining the ocean, or a speck of dust returning to the earth." (WND, 1003)
"To establish meaningful lives, I hope that during your youth you will work hard to polish you intellect. Life, in a sense, is a battle of wisdom. It is the power of Buddhism that enables one to win this battle. True faith is characterized by a brillance of intellect and depth of wisdom that result from devotion to practice." (For Today & Tomorrow, Daisaku Ikeda)
