"Thich Nhat Hanh shows us the connection between personal inner
peace and peace on earth."
—His Holiness the Dalai Lama
"Thich Nhat Hanh writes with the voice of the Buddha."
—Sogyal Rinpoche, author of The Tibetan Book of Living and
Dying
"365 pithy teachings. . . . In the editor’s preface, Melvin McLeod
suggests reading them slowly, maybe one or two a day, in order to
savor and digest them more fully. This is excellent advice, but
whenever I sit down with the book, I find myself reading ‘just one
more’ and ‘just one more’ again."
—Shambhala Sun
"What I most appreciate in this little book is how each passage
cuts directly through to the heart of the matter. The selections
are simple, profound, and meaningfully applicable to everyday life
in today’s world."
—New Spirit Journal
"Melvin McLeod has done a wonderful job of compiling one year’s
worth of Hanh’s teachings. Each reading is short: none is more than
a half page in length and most are shorter. Yet each contains a
potent seed capable of transforming a day or even a lifetime if
allowed to take hold and grow. If the world could practice what
Hanh preaches, I believe the major problems facing our world today
could be resolved."
—San Francisco Book Review
