Hello Aloka,

May i ask you, where do you think the many websites online came up with the abovementioned quote from? and why would they lie?

Hi again Bundokji,

Quote sites on the internet are often unreliable and BWB is a learning community which requires the sources of any reference material used here.

I can't find a sutta reference and on Wiki quotes that particular one is on their list described as:

"Unsourced

Wikiquote no longer allows unsourced quotations, and they are in process of being removed from our pages (see Wikiquote:Limits on quotations); but if you can provide a reliable and precise source for any quote on this list please move it to Gautama Buddha. --Antiquary 19:45, 6 April 2009 (UTC)"

http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Talk:Gautama_Buddha

If you want to reference anything from the Buddha, I suggest you do it from this site and give the name and/or the reference of the sutta it came from:
